For the external wastegate. I've already been through enough ---- taking it off, expecting a new manifold to come over 2 months ago, so I put it back on. I'm tired of it.

when I fluxcore mild steel to cast iron, I use a propane torch to heat up the cast iron, and then weldmit it, it work great like that.

First time to lay anything more than bird ---- with flux is unheard of




Its flux. Its not pretty but it works. My cheapo 100 hf flux has done alot of small jobs that have saved the day for me. Anyone who is poor and just wants to start to learn its a good buy IMO.



Awesome its still holdin. Maybe reply to some of those HT threads :)



Some how Im sure full race will end up in the first 10 posts LOL
