Anyone know a place that could xray a crankcase near to Gatwick?

I m a ourier and often collect and deliver from this company in Reigate. They do non-destructive testing on all sorts of stuff. loads of aero stuff but often see engine cases etc in there.

You make it sound like that would be abnormal.

I havn't been involved in NDT for a long time, but it would cost an awfull lot of money to xray a crank case, we used to to Magnetc partile inspection on them, I'd hate to think how may fimls you would need to do full xray on a crank case, and the change in density would make them very difficult to read,'
Buy some dye penetrent and do a check yourself.
