Cragar Head is Cracked (Again) Can it be Fixed?

[rogeroadster]

Took my cast iron Cragar head to be pressure tested and as I suspected it is cracked. It is leaking from the water jacket into the exhaust port from around the #2 and 3 exhaust guides. Anybody have any experience repairing this type of crack?

The guide holes can be sleeved after the cracks are repaired. The problem is those heads were very thin in several places, so crack easily, and likely will crack again. The permanent fix is to buy a new head from Steve Serr @ millerhispeed.com

Yeah, I've already ordered one from Steve Surr.
