alundsberg,

Attached are photos of a Diamond B engine that l did a crack repair on about 35 years ago, l used 1/8" solid brass plugs, 11 of them, starting on each end and worked towards the middle, drilling half into the crack and half into the plug. Many years later Pete recommended that l use Cast Iron Plugs to prevent dissimilar metal expansion.
