I'd like opinions of this repair. The block was welded and I drove it around several times and it never leaked. I just couldn't stand the look of the weld so I made this flat spot with JB weld and when I was done I laid some 60 grit sandpaper down on it and tapped it with a hammer several times to try and get the cast look. What U think?

looks good to me as it is a serviceable unit and looks like part of it will be out of site anyway .. ------------- Life lesson: If you’re being chased by a lion, you’re on a horse, to the left of you is a giraffe and on the right is a unicorn, what do you do?

Looks good to me also. Stamp some sort of random number on it and non-Allis people may even think it's original. ------------- 1939 B, 1940 B, 1941 WC, 1951 WD, 1952 CA, 1956 WD-45 |

Looks good to me too. Should've cut the heads off a couple of bolts and then glued them onto each side. Would look like it is bolted in place. REALLY P!ss someone off when they try to remove it! LOL
