Hi Guys,

I am looking for somewhere that can repair cast iron without welding it.
There is a method called metal stitching where you drill a series of holes along the crack and wind in a 'screw' then repaet the process until the crack is completely sealed.

Just wondering if any of you guys know anywhere in the NE that could do this kind of work..?

Its for a 1945 willys jeep engine block for those that are curious as to what i am up to..!!

Cheers

Andy
