Transmission case isn't the problem. This is the engine. Its one of the first of these RZRs and they do not hold up to roll overs very well. He didn't know this thing was broken when he bought it.

We got motors laying around too.
why use standard nozzles after gas lens where invented. Kinda of like starting fires by rubbing sticks together.
I'll find out what year his machine is in case this whole thing goes south. I'm fairly certain that it's from either the first or second production year of the RZR.
I got the holes filled in but I'm not sure how deeply everything is penetrated. I cut short sections of rod and put them in the holes before blasting those bastards with 200 amps for between 20 and 30 seconds, then added in filler by hand to fill the remaining voids. I'm hoping that I have about 1/2" of metal tied into the depths of each hole. Who knows though. Only gonna find out by drilling and tapping them again.
This engine case has an amazing ability to soak up some heat. The transmission housing didn't require anything close to this level of power.
