yeah, that's what it can be used for:manifolds, exhaust, i just don't know about the gassless part. it says it doesn't require gas. i wanna know if it's worth it and being that it doesn't require will it be harder to weld with?

wow doc that doesn't look too bad. did you do that without gas? do you think it'll warp 3/8" thick mild steel? ok..do you have to clean the welding tip every other spot weld or so?
