gotta get it tig welded. drill 2 holes at the end of the crack. V groove the crack and weld with high nickle filler. stick it in sand. let it cool down slowly ayda yada yada.

there's plenty of places around maryland that can fix that. Call agile auto or JE fab in baltimore. Or inlne pro down in springfield va. One of them ought to be able to fix that in no time.

what is the problem with just welding it, without making a v cut. would it not hold?
