thanks thats uber helpful...I have access to a TIG welder here at school but have never welded before...if I get someone who's just a beginner to do it, is the steel to cast iron too hard; i.e. am i better trying to find a shop to do it? I just want it to hold and not melt everything under my hood w/leaks.. pics would be huge...thanks again


you cant weld it with a TIG welder either, you have to use an Arc welder, the one that uses the foot long sticks of welding rod with the crust on them lol. The dirtiest kind of welding basically. I wouldnt have a "beginner" do it, Its kind of a pain in the ass. You have to preheat the 02 housing before you seld it, and after you weld it you have to put it in sand or kitty litter so it cools down very slowly, otherwise itll crack.
I just ran out and snapped a few pics.
You cant really see much with it installed. The other pic I posted was better as far as how to do it. Heres a link on DSM Tuners on how to do it, not sure if itll work though theryre doing maint. on the server or something.
