Use 309L to weld the mild steel to stainless. Whoever told you to use silicone bronze for that application is steering you down a bad road......
Yes, 7018 is reffering to the stick welding rod. 70,000 PSI tensile strength. I agree with your assessment that it should be ok for mild use,...
I read the thread you linked to, and I think you put some good thought into the job. I only find a couple faults with how you did it though....
If it were me, that dude would be full of 5.45mm holes from my AK74 Tantal.
I used to use that tape when I worked for an industrial gas equipment manufacturer. That stuff is awesome. Trying to get my current boss to buy...
Yeah, true, but I don't think there's much I could have done with all those curves. I just had to be patient and go nice, slow and cold. I had my...
I used aluminum angle on the corner to corner joints, and that made it easy, but the other joints all have compound curves and funky corners that...
Likewise, jdustu, very nice! (and thank you) I figured I'd post a couple more things I did this past week. This is part of a small burner pipe I...
Some crap I did at work... Stainless Steel pressure vessel. Most of the pics I take are from my crappy iPod camera) [IMG] And some crap I do out...
Cool build thread, can't wait to see it run!
Love it. Very tricky!
I really like it, and it's even shiny!
I love sleepers! Had a couple myself, but they were OT cars (little econocrap boxes, but still USA stuff).
Boing! Got Wood? It's a real woodie! Good thing you'll never see any of those cheesy bumper stickers on it.
Subscribed. Very nice work!
Yea, the efi thing is why I didn't post my build thread here. I was originally gonna stuff a caddy 472 in it, but then I figured I wanted to...
All I have in the way of pics so far is in my build thread http://www.chevytalk.org/fusionbb/showtopic.php?tid/273932/ I'll get more pics as work...
Cool thread. I'm doing something very similar with my 52 chevy. Draping the body over a 94 caprice frame, complete with the caprice floor and...
Just saw the thread. Crap, I would've stopped by. Only 15 minutes from me.
I've got that model. Built it back in the early 90's and still have it today. That model was the reason I wanted to get my '52 Chevy when I saw...
94 Caprice 9C1 (cop car) I have a build thread over at chevy talk if you wanna check it out....
Holy Moly! Subscribed!
I don't envy you at all with that wiring job! I got an LT1 in my 52, but I did it the easy way. Did a frame swap and the donor car had the LT1....
Best thread ever!!!! The saxaphone stuck on the anus of an elephant comment was just the best. I'm still chuckling about that.
It hurts me to see such a beautifully kept original NOT in MY garage! You are one lucky dude. Clean up that original paint a bit and that thing...
Looking forward to seeing this through to the end.....
Yes, but I live on the opposite coast and lost her number......I was just the guy who provided the trans.
