worn out or cracked blocks
What do you do with a block that is no good? Is there a use for it? I though about taking one to school for the tech lab.

Clem,
It matters a lot what is wrong with it. Can you be more specific?

I have a couple, one has worn cylinders one with a nasty gouge, and the other block has been totally redone and was dropped by a previous owner and one of the ears busted off, I believe I still have the part.
I was just wondering in general though if they were worth fixing up or just dumping, when they go bad.

Clem,
Maybe you could investigate an internal mechanical repair of the busted ear. I plan to make such a repair to the Cub I got from up your way, possibly this winter of next spring. When I do I plan to well document it as a guide to others. It won't be welded.
I wouldn't make such a repair to an engine that needed other expensive work but it makes sense to me to salvage one that is in otherwise good condition.
If you want to dump it, dump it my way!

Next time your up my way, stop over, I'll pick your brain and you can pick your block.
How can we go wrong?
