With adequate penetration, the area could be built up with welding rod, then with a dremel tool, brought to final size and polished. I did it many years ago on a motorcycle. Just my 2 cents. Paul Conner Good question. I thought about that too, but it didn't seem too feasible, particularly where it will be hard to reach a few inches into the manifold runner. Also, I'm far more experienced with epoxy putty than welding rod :-) Cheers, Rusty (just bought a 4A084) ------=_NextPart_000_020C_01C3DE6D.984535E0 Content-Type: text/html; charset="US-ASCII" Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable Message
