Re: broken 8n block
Where is the crack?
Does it leak oil or coolant?
What do you use the tractor for?
What state are you in?

Re: broken block
A crack from cylinder bore to valve is not good as valve will no longer seal well.
Since you were rebuilding anyway, I would just get another block and move on.
You can usually find one pretty cheap, but shipping is a bear. Good luck.

Re: broken 8n block
If you work it, and can afford it, buy a real tractor.
