Looks like you've got some fun ahead of you... free bump

get one of those oil sandwich things that go between the oil filter and the block.....also, JB Weld the crap out of that crack so that it doesn't leak.

JB weld is not the answer. I'd have someone tig that back together. Might have to pull the block and take it to a welder.

any one have other ways i don't feel like taking my block out..... where can i get htis sandwich?

get a 1/8 ntp plug thread it in so some of the thread are in the block then jb weld the expletive out of it is the only way without pulling the block

how the hell did you overtorque that?

Mr. Vapor

eeek....

put the fitting back in and have it Tigged, thats my vote. dont expletive around with JB weld.

imagine this:

you're cruising along, full 3rd gear pull at redline and your "JB weld" decides to let go....there goes all your oil and your motor

this has happened to me and JB weld did not work. my block did not crack no where near as bad as yours. it was a hairline fracture. i used jb weld and not only did the block look like ****, it continued to leak. not a lot but enough for me to notice it and i could not live with it.

Greddy, and Golden eagle both make nice sandwich plates. You can always buy a no name brand off ebay.

1st off, lots of brake clean is your friend, you need to make that area REALLY clean before you try to jbweld it. put the piece back on that broke off, and put a 1/8 npt plug in the hole. THEN jb weld the living f uck out of it. just do a bunch of thin coats, and let the JB dry between each coat. it might take a couple days to get it to where you're confident that u can start it, but it WILL work if you take the time to do it right (can anything REALLY be done right with jbweld?) and if that doesnt work, you can always take out the motor and get it tigged. might as well try the JB 1st.<TABLE WIDTH="90%" CELLSPACING=0 CELLPADDING=0 ALIGN=CENTER><TR><TD>Quote, originally posted by Mr. Vapor &raquo;</TD></TR><TR><TD CLASS="quote">eeek....

alright i just bought brake cleaner and a sandwich from camp1320. the guy from camp told me to just use KBweld and a plug he supplied for me... Hope it works.. thank you guys shall let you know if it leaks

Turbo-charged

i would never even consider jb welding something like that.

em1 Ziggy

is there anything else thats better then the jbweld technic without having to pull the block out to get it welded?

5STAR3

welding it would be the correct way, imo.

either way, jbweld or normal weding, i would want the area super clean. so it would be much easier to just take the block out and do it right.

if there are enough threads letf to use a plug that would be fine.

btotherizzle

if you took the intake mani off could you weld it from above while the motor is still installed? That's sucks ***, easy on the aluminum block it's weak as expletive.

SOHC_MShue

Personally I would take the easy way out and JB Weld it...not saying that is the best way though

em1 Ziggy

well heres the kbweld im probably hold off on this i know it looks ugly but my im having a hard time putting it on with the lack of space... u guys think this will hold until i get a good weld or should i stack some more jb on it?
