Aluminum Block Repair

I have an aluminum Ford R302 that has the #2 main bearing web cracked nearly all the way from the pan rail down to the cam and back up to the pan rail on the other side. It didn't get into the water jacket. Does anyone know who is an expert at aluminum block repair? My budget is limited but I can't afford for it not to done right the first time. Lots of people are good at welding aluminum but getting it strong without warping the piss out of it is the trick. I'm in North Carolina. Help! I'll give you a ride in the 1800 lb. 1965 Griffith the block belongs in for your trouble.

John
