Ed....'good on you' for your TIG work on cast iron.....have you tried 'TIG brazing' also, for cast iron part restoration work?

I don't know what the actual alloy or purity difference between the common brazing rod sold for torch work and the version specified for TIG-brazing might be, but I've had some really good results with the stuff.

bob308.....'good on you'....considering today's economics, you're giving the folks here a really good deal on your work.... : )

Do you have a source for the 'add-on' flange castings which were once commonly supplied to muffler shops for manifold splitting?

The reason I ask is that we looked through the small collection of old Mopar exhaust manifolds in the clutter here, and, as dumb luck would have it, all the ones we have are good ones, and I'm a bit hesitant to destroy a good one by salvaging the flange area from it.

Does anyone here have a stray old Dodge/Ply flat-six exhaust manifold or two which is cracked or otherwise damaged, which I could buy cheaply to salvage the flange area?

cheers
