Are These Cracks Something To Worry About They Dont Seem To Go All The Way Through To Water Jacket? I CANT SEEM TO GET PICS TO UPLOAD.

If what you see is in the exhaust chest where the ports are machined out in the stuffing block area it's quite common and normally not a problem.

I started cutting the chest on a 260 this afternoon and there are several cracks in the up right wall at the divider plate area in the middle of the block. I have never cut one that DIDN'T have cracks... 99% of the time like Noah said they are harmless and don't cause issues..

Good luck,
Jay
