Broken crankshaft. Worth saving the rest?

I have some B cranks. Bring that one over and see if we have one that can be ground to that size.

Welding a two piece crank= bad idea....find one and have it ground to match the broken one make sure rear thrust length is matching as well as journal dia
 
Yes take to Steve at Bert's it should be a fairly easy fix if he has another crank. Bring the block crank and rods and let him inspect every thing. You may get off easy.
 
That crank has probably been run with a bad, grabby, choppy clutch for a good while in the past. A bad pressure plate, releasing and grabbing the disc unevenly will wear out the input bearing, the pilot shaft splines and main bearing, and the needle bearings on the back of the pilot shaft. All this flopping around would result is a spinning offset weight bearing on that crank flange, which as stated is very thin.
