Yes brazing is acceptable, the repair on the skirt by the oil pan rail will most likely only fail if smacked by a connecting rod again but so would the rest of the block. But brazing that main bearing support would worry me, especially if a racing engine.


If the brazing rod has a higher strength than cast iron, why? I would think that it is the strongest part of the block. Just wondering why. Not trying to argue.
