Question Repair a cracked transmission case?

Is it possible to repair a cracked transmission case? I got a used transmission for my '99 Accord V6 because my original is TOAST, and I noticed unloading it that the transmission case near the axle was cracked. The place I got it from offered to weld it, but I'm skeptical that it will hold long enough for me to rebuild my original with a Level10 kit. Anyone have any experience with welding or repairing a crack cast aluminum case???

Thanks!!!

It's not easy to weld aluminum. (esp cast) Hope they have the right stuff.

Re: Repair a cracked transmission case?

unless he's willing to warranty it and anything else that it potentially may cause damage to if it messes up...i'd asked for an exchange or money back.
