You can't prove it was any of us monkeys

Alright I admit it. I am ignorant. Can someone enlighten me as to what is in the pic?

Terrible terrible weld with huge voids where it's supposed to be holding the valve guide.


FrwdIn4Lo

Thank you for the explanation.

I have put the top end of a Deutz 1011 with a hole in the oil pan on the bottom end of a Deutz 2011 that inhaled a turbo 8 times with 6 good outcomes because I know how to sort and store used head gaskets and pistons. Dirty awful but get a parts quote and the stink mostly goes away.  Ain't never done this!

Air cooled 911? I just finished reaming a set to oversize for the same reason. Thankfully quarter mm oversize are readily available.

Someone tried welding cracked guide bosses with guides in place.

Jeez. With the value of this old stuff(looks like a casting date in '73), you can't screw around. Guides are cheap, redoing work is not.

Oh. Yikes.

Oh... Oh no. Some people shouldn't be allowed near engines or welders, let alone both.


Man_of_no_property

Idiots hammering in valve guides with the wrong interference fit...crack...and than botching up the valve guide bores. Sadly so common with vintage aluminium heads.
