I intend to bring my type 4 cases somewhere to get welded.
What is the best method to weld a case? Tig, mig, other high tech method? |

Having recently needed Tig welding done on CIS aluminum intake arms, the key was to ultrasonically clean the aluminum. Any fuel or oil vapor will poison the weld. We had a little learning curve on how to get all the years of fuel impregnation out of the arms. Once they were "clean" they Tigged up nice.
