I'm a ham-fisted moron. Is this fixable? (cylinder head)

Oof, when I read the thread title, I thought this was going to be a rocker shaft journal...
I don't think you're going to fix that for less than the price of a used head.Originally posted by priapismMy girl don't know shit, but she bakes a mean cupcake.Originally posted by shamesonUsually it's best not to know how much money you have into your e30

got a head here where the rear corner broke off and the crack went through the rocker shaft plug groove.......looks a bunch easier to fix than that though89 E30 325is Lachs Silber - currently M20B31, M20B33 in the works, stroked to the hilt...

OP, I don't think you should repair that. Not sure on your budget, your plans for the head and how much parts you already purchased. $600-700 should get you a complete refurbished 885 head ready to install.
