Once again the power of the list is incredible. Several helpful replies have
determined my course of action.
1. Better support of the weight of the turbo/carb weight with a bracket
between the turbo and the block.
2. Normalize the piece after welding (heat to red heat and cool slowly) I have
access to a high temp oven that will do nicely
3. Thinnest gauge that will hold the pressure will behave best.
4. Produce neat, nicely radiused welds.
Thanks guys, I'll let you know how it comes out in a week or two.
Regards,
Glen Byrns
