Subject: cracks in the block

---

I received the information from my engine workshop that there are cracks in the lower part of my DB 3l block (picture will follow).

Who has experience with welding this (by a specialist of course), did it last, or is it not recommended with this block

Alternatively I am looking for a used but good block.

Last alternative would be a new block (Tim Stamper or others). Who went this way and what are the experiences ?

Thanks for advice
Peter
