Anyone had this happen before?
I spoke to an engineering shop that said they could weld it but what do you guys think, will it hold up through future drops?

Seen it happen to several 636's, just put some honda-bond on it!

that sucks , if it didnt go right into the center of the cam seat i would say give welding it a try but nah i would just find a used motor if it were mine

did this to my 636..i also wanted to weld mine but mine was cracked too bad around the corner to weld, i would guess yours is to. i bought a used head on ebay and replaced it.. good luck (and i seen people replace heads without droping the motor but not sure on 636 cause mine was already out)

what kind of cage?
cracked head - Dstunts - 03-07-2011
damm i was hoping i could get away with the $50 weld..
And yep its cracked up around the corner aswell, Im runnin a tygershark cage.
Is there anythin that could prevent this sort of thing from happening? or is just too many hard drops?
