Crack in cylinder head

[Nimrod77]

Anyone know a good shop that can stitch weld a crack in cylinder head. I have my engine overheating and getting air in system. Found a crack.

Thanks

What engine what tractor? May be more feasible to get a different head.

It’s a 195 hard time to find this head I found.

Seems like there should be someone with all the modern equipment now days. All the ones that I knew are gone now.

There used to be 2 places in Chapin, Ill that fixed cylinder heads, you want the one that's out in the country if they are still open.

There is a Waukesha group on Linked-In, who I’m sure could locate a head for you.

@Centerplate last I heard they were no longer doing it, the old boy retired and sold it to some Amish fellows and he was helping them get going but things weren't going well, there is also a place named Diesel Cast specialties that did head welding, I think they are in MN

I don't know if your interested or not , but someone on FB had a whole motor out of a 77 for sale that runs. Said he's got a bigger motor he's putting in his tractor. 400.00. not sure where he's at.
