I purchased this P-Ayr 392 hemi mockup block & heads yesterday at Fall Fling. Got a pretty good price on it, but it has 2 of the top timing cover holes breaking off. I suspect that this damage occured from hanging it during storage, and something fell on it etc. I looked it up and it seems this is a closed cell urethane foam material. Any suggestions what epoxy or glue is best to use to repair this?

Looks like fun.

Try phoning them (Texas time) and asking what they think??

I would try gorilla glue. But I would test it on an non-essential surface first.

I think that someone used too long bolts, bottoning down and crack goes the block.
If that's so, you should be able to drill and make threads with at tap in the plastic, thereby holding the broken pieces together.

Those breaks look pretty clean, should be fixable with the right adhesive.
