Default Is there a fix for a cracked TC?

I put on my SYE and the top of my TC cracked where the treads are on the very top bolt. I want to know if there is a fix other than getting a donor TC. So does anyone know how to fix or am I going to have to get a new TC?

How much work is it to change everything over to a new case? From the looks of it it is easy.

Not bad, a couple of hours will surely take care of it. If you put your SYE on you had it half apart anyway
