Re: Welding a gas tank
This is a no bullshit story, an old timer I know would just weld them up in the car. fill the tank all the way up with gas he would use oxyacetlyne and braze that ----. I was pretty nerovuse when I saw him do it but it can be done.

i had a leak in a former EK i had. Dropped the tank and had it hot tanked for like 10 min. This way it didn't eat the undercoating on it. Washed it out with water, flame checked it, then went to town. Any decent automotive machine shop should have a hot tank.

Neighboor's vette up the street had a dealer install some blah axle back exhaust. They screwed a bracket through his tank. Took him a week to realize why he was running out of gas.
