I've sent Ruck some blocks that I thought was "Train Wrecks" and he's successfully fixed them... If it "can" be fixed Ruck can fix it...

That can be fixed easily. Weld it up and put a sleeve in it.

That can be saved, just do your homework on economics first. Might be cheaper to get a good used block somewhere or a rebuilt one with a warranty

US1 where are you located? I'm in Whittier CA How much to weld & new sleeve

[us1]

I am too swamped to take it right now. If you can wait I can do it. Sleeving is $225.00 and it looks like about $200.00 to weld and machine the block.

How long is the wait? I'm not in a hurry I have my other boat for now

Replace the crank and front half. They are pretty inexpensive here in the classifieds. If the block is otherwise good, have it fixed.
