Speedway motors has a flathead preassure checker, for 24 stud engines, $249 but it can detect cracks and leaks within the block, if someone would allow you to check it that way, buy it and then tear it down and have it magnafluxed or buy a magnaflux kit yourself, if the block is cracked and deemed not repairable after that, keep all the internals and send the junker block out into the pasture, get another engine, do the same until you find a good block.
