Many years ago my grandfather told me that cracked cast iron engine blocks would be heated in a kiln to cherry red. Then the crack would be grooved and welded. The engine block was then surrounded by an insulating material and allowed to slowly cool over several days. He claimed these blocks were actually stronger then freshly cast blocks.

@@jackfrost2146 With brazing ,it's true, your not melting the work piece....however, a weld, doesn't need the same metal as the filler. ie. you can weld cast-iron with nickel or stainless....nickel works well. you are right with regard to Brazing...but the effect is the same. You are melting the filler to join or repair. Brazing has lower structural integrity than welding, but sometimes it doesn't matter....as in repairing a cast-iron block.

[@Harzhopper]

If we is in that place he will trough the block away

[@tmittelstaed]

Couple of things about this one. First, this is brazing not welding and it's the proper way to repair cast iron. Second if done right the repair will hold. Remember that when it was new the block was being held in the engine bay by a bolt which concentrates the stress in one small place, this brazed flange that he built up connects to the block in a much longer area so it's going to have a lot less stress on the material joint. But something else that isn't mentioned is it is quite clear they have been brazing on a LOT of these blocks because they had the slug made up in the dimensions of the crankshaft and it's seen a lot of pitting in between the mains so that indicates they have done this repair many times to this kind of block. I think it's clear the company that is casting these blocks is using crappy iron that's probably full of impurities, the blocks are crap, and suffer frequent failures and this shop sees them all the time they probably do one or two of these blocks a day. The thing to remember about engines is that the reason that we are so anal about tolerances is we want our engine blocks to last 200k+ miles, but if you have ever worked on repairing lawnmower engines you know that those are really all over the map - the factory has tolerances for them but an engine that's sucking in grass that never has it's oil changed by most owners is not going to maintain it's tolerances very long. Yet every spring I collect 2-3 of them that people have set on the side of the road with "free" signs on them and it's always the carbs are full of crap, never a failure in a block.

[@atubebuff]

With all the heat that was put into that block, is there a concern for warping? I see they tried to used wet rags to cool but still.

[@jon_byler]

Look at the chips when they drill the holes. Those are not brass brazing material. You can see the little bucket full of cast iron bits that he’s using as filler rod. Probably vent gates cut from castings. He’s also restoring this to how it was, putting all the mounting holes in the original places or close to it.

Gent who taught me to weld did this type of weld repair on stationary industrial gas and diesel engines running power stations, sawmills, etc, etc. The last one he did was still running a full work week every week 30 years after the repair. It had been re-sleeved a few times but the block repair was still holding fine. If you've been taught and had it driven into you that it can't be done then you'll never be able to do it unless you cast that preconception aside and think your way through it and give it a good try. Having someone who already knows how to do it well train you to do it will of course make it much easier. We unfortunately never had the opportunity to weld an engine block or transmission housing before he passed away. Best!

I saw them hitting it with calipers once. As for the tapped holes, there is still one existing in which something bolts to. They can bolt it up, and transfer the dimension to the block. (or they already know the spacing). For what they are doing, there is no need for a lot of dimensions. The flat decked surface will be milled flat again.

Great skills man of Pakistan

The beauty of oxyacetylene. You can braze, weld, cut, free stuck bolts and much more and it’s all so quiet. Great to see these skills alive still.

[@TheRebelOne.]

Have you ever seen an acetylene cylinder explode?

[@chrisp9046]

@@TheRebelOne. Exactly, it’s all so quiet but definitely more dangerous than other welding.

[@Shredneck76]

It’s not quiet. On the video it sounds quiet but in person it’s louder.

[@sureshpeshawaria347]

Any inflammable gas cylinder can explode...still people use it..

Very interesting, and I share the reservations/admiration expressed below about welding cast iron. It reminds me of my years in Africa, when spare parts weren't obtainable. I raced a go-kart, and one wheel had a large chip on the rim. A fellow-employee offered to weld it, thinking it was aluminum. He gave up, saying the welds wouldn't hold, and the wheel emitted a shower of sparks. Being a chemical engineer, I realized that the wheel was made of magnesium, and there was nothing I could do.

Они реанимировали чугунный блок с такой чудовищной поломкой в условиях обычного гаража! Моё почтение и уважение этим мастерам. Сварной от Бога просто.

брату на мтз тоже заваривал блок , ничего сложного , знать надо что и как ну и руки конечно , в деревне у нас не такие чудеса приходится делать особенно когда движок стоит пол трактора

[@thomasholland3289]

All my respect. This old fellow has off the charts skills. I'll go with Ni rod.

[@rexnemo]

I was looking at the charcoal and bricks and thinking the bricks prevent too much heat from being spread to the casting thus reducing distortion and the charcoal serves two purposes , to reduce heat spreading but also to break down into carbon dioxide and shield the welding area from oxygen contained in the air , so these people are performing a carbon dioxide shielded weld ! Ingenuity indeed .

Good job !

Через год выльют новый блок, поршня и выточат коленвал. Соберут на этой же табуретке, и не будут париться

[@vladislavkucherenko3788]

С хера ли ему работать год... Постель коленвала повело, не говоря уже о геометрии цилиндров. Все похоже на то, что и точные токарные работы, которыми можно было бы что-то в этом блоке исправить на момент сборки - им не известны.

When parts are more than labor and labor is skilled out of necessity. Think of Cuba and 50 s cars. Bravo to the skills of this group. The human spirit!
