SLO-030 Posted March 6, 2009 Report Share Posted March 6, 2009 Hey mate, just in case youre unaware, you need a very high powered welder to weld alloy nicely, eg 3 phase. It also helps very much to have a wire feed in your hand piece, as the alloy wire prefers to be pulled rather than pushed. Cheers Id Tig weld it. Just cause I'm difficult.

Cheers yeah i figured as much the welder i used is 3 phase and has hand peice wire feed but i've weighed the costs up and it'll be cheaper for me to cut the bits and pay someone to weld it all up!

LukeAE71 Posted March 11, 2009 Report Share Posted March 11, 2009 got my kaizen garage CAS cover today!! its very noice!! They are wicked hey, I got mine in the post yesterday. I reckon I rang Anthony three days before, paid direct into his account and it was in the post in my post box within those three days. I have already fitted mine and if it wasn't all shiny and new you would think it was meant to be there all along. :) An absolute awesome guy to deal with, wish he sold more 20 valve specific parts tho :( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
