Re: Cracked block on 1922 Single Six

Thanks guys. The crack can be seen in the attached photo. The car had antifreeze in it and has not been overheated during the year I have owned it. The antifreeze "found" the crack and seemed to make things worse. The idea would be to weld the crack, then bore the cylinder and fit a dry liner if there is enough metal to take it! Otherwise, we will just have to rely on modern welding to make it right, unless anyone knows of a block which is available.
