Need advice on cracked block

[Kurt in NJ]

My advice was based on the piston expanders, stitching, or proper heating and brazing would probably mean total dissassembly ---then you will find that the bores are worn, then you will look closer at the babbitt and crank ---and the cam and valves ---unless you are ready to make the plunge into a total rebuild ---put it back together with a clean oil pan ans spend the money on the radiator and the brakes and enjoy the car for the summer.
