Wanting opinion from the engine builders here. Is this case shot now with this metal gouges on the barrel mount? Piston was completely rusted solid in the barrel so had to cut the rod to get it off. Woops!!@$@*

JB weld it, remove all the case interior studs and take it to a good machinist, have them deck the bores just enough for cleanup.
I'm finding just about every case needs this service anyways, 40 year old cases sink in the middle between the bores. Even if the JB weld was to fail it's trapped and won't go anywhere. |
