It would depend on where and why it cracked and it may not be repairable or worth repairing. You may want to consider locating a good used block or purchasing a reconditioned short block.

cracked head, cracked block Bring it in asap. Id be willing to bet you have a cracked head. If you keep driving like that you'll screw up your engine. Coolant isn't made to lubricate an engine, and your pistons and other items in your engine will pay for your driving it like that. Im surprised your car doesnt overheat. No oil additive is going to fix your cracked head, it needs to be replaced.
