Nickel is what you want to use when welding with cast, but who gives a ---- when the other way will work fine. but why dont you just bolt it on your mani how it is and run it that way smartass.
and i don't wanna run it the way it is b/c of exhaust leaks.. if any....
thats why i made the thread.. to find out if it would be a problem...

it says its for the catinlet. my measurements for the OD of the circle on the volvo flange is 2.75" = 69mm. the ID for the flange is 50mm = 1.97" i figure if i'll have 14mm to work with of gasket (if i can find a non-flex gasket) and i can dremel it out to fit the square port. hell, i ain't goin for super power.. i'll prob just get eh flex gasket
