I would braze it. Tack it in several spots, V out the groove between the tacks, braze, V under the tacks and finish brazing. Look for someone in your area familiar with brazing, should be as strong as the cast, what caused the break? |

What parts do you need for the ZX engine? I have some parts for the Hercules ZX. Got a picture of the engine? |
