Default Block Girdle usage?
Given the condition of these block girdle would it be safe to reuse it? Came from a block in which a bearing was slung. I'm not doing a crazy build. Shooting for 220-240 range. Thanks in advance.

Those 'cracks' are just casting defects.

They're just casting marks. No need to worry. They all have that on there.

Block girdle costs like $80, just grab another one if you're worried.

Or ask the machine shop that doing your machine work on your build.
