      LS6 Cracked Block Repair?

      A buddy of mine is selling his warrentied LS6 motor but it has a small hairline crack on the drivers side by a freeze plug. I say it is warrentied b/c his old motor threw a rod and this new motor was installed. Once it was started up they discovered the oil leak while it was still on the lift. This motor is 100% new but the crack is freaking me out. The manufacturer sent him another LS6 and they never requested the old motor with the crack, so now he has a free LS6 just sitting around! He told me that he is going to have it drilled and welded before he sells it.

      What is the "proper" way to go about fixing this problem. I want to do an LS swap and this is the best bang for the buck.

      Any ideas/advice is appreciated!!
