A couple of days ago I was preparing the car for the new season and discovered what I thought was a single crack in the block on the passenger side which runs from the top of the front freeze plug to beyond the top of the back freeze plug. Today while pulling the motor I discovered that the driver side is also cracked in the same place. Whoa!!!!! I consider myself lucky as the car was running fine last time out, and to think about what could have happened just sends chills down my spine.

Details: 500 Wedge all motor, 625 HP,
727, No trans brake,
motor plate with straps from the frame to the motor mount bosses on both sides.

Any thoughts so I don't have the same thing happen again, if by chance I did something wrong that I don't know about.

Thanks ole wise ones......
