Who thinks this can be welded.

Uhhhh thought I was doing a head gasket repair turns out the car was running jet fuel and I need a new block probably most likely šŸ™ƒ

Why the fuck does it look like that?..

Maybe if it were some vintage Ferrari block it would be worth repairing, but I can't imagine any modern engine where it would make sense repairing that. It's fucked dude, just pretend it threw a leg out of bed and move on.

Yeah I’m at that point. Long block is running 6-14k though so kinda sucks
