Subject:Can heads be welded?...
From:Richard Bias

All,
  What had originally appeared to be a "coolant in the combustion chamber"
problem, now appears to be a "crack" or leak in the actual exhaust port of
the head (good news I guess, not getting engine compression passed into the
coolant system).  My question is, can the head be welded and tested?  And if
so, approximately how much?  I would rather use the "fixed" original head
than a new or used off another engine head.  Thank you as always.
