Not to speak too much but it seems as though it could be fixed, I've seen pictures of cat engine blocks fixed after they threw a leg out of bed. (Con rod out the side of the block) there are specialist repair companies that deal in cast iron repairs such as www.metalsurgery.com

Google valve seat repair. Plus if its going to be scrapped why not have a go at fixing it. You might have a win. Or send it to Jody and pay him in beer to make a video of welding it up.

Mick,
He'd have to buy a lot of beer, and pay a lot of freight to ship out a head for a C15 cat, no matter the turbo configuration. It's 4ft long and probably 8-10 inches thick... C15's don't play haha. I'd hate to see how much freight would be to ship one of the C18 heads off one of the engines in the hydraulic cell at Jonathan's shop would cost.... yikes!!!!! Those make the C15's look tiny!!!!!
