Re: IML: cast iron welder in SE?

["Moorehouse Construction LLC" <smoorehouse@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

In reading the email I believe the machine shop should take some 
responsibility if they charged you for machineing a blick that was cracked 
especialy since they manafluxed it. they should machine another block for 
you for free. And you shouldent bother with the cracked block call lowell 
howe (209) 892-3464 he will definatly have a 59 block and probably have a 
good runing engine and good imperial conversation to boot.

Hmmm, I think you should replace the block. There are lots of sources
listed on the OIC web site. Imperials with 413's don't have matching
serial numbers, but are designated by year. I am thinking that your car
was a '59. There should be some '59 413's out there, if you care about
the serial number. If not, since you are going through all this
trouble, I would recommend that you buy a rebuilt long block for the
car, or buy another engine and have it rebuilt.

IMHO, repairing cracked blocks is usually a last resort for rare
unobtainable replacements. I don't believe that a 413 is in that
category.

I discovered that my 413 engine block is in fact slightly cracked. The
machine shop missed it during the magna fluxing. I almost put the
engine back together but noticed a hair crack in the water jacket. It
is not in the cylinder and a good welder should be able to fix this. I
am looking for an experienced welder with an oven who will use the low
nickel muggy 77 rod. If any of the members in the southeast know of
someone let me know.
Thanks, David

Your note posted to the entire list, you aren't blocked. No one's
upset. What questions do you have about your Imperial?

Carl, Did my email from the site arrive blank? Have I been blocked, I
am confused about this matter. Not clear how to contact Steve Directly.
I really enjoy this site, but I am surprised to find that no one is
replying to my email questions. Anything you can do to clear this up
would be appreciated. I am new member and just trying to understand how
this works. My apologies if I have upset anyone


Best regards, David Carpenter
