Hi,
We have broken exhaust manifold studs in a cast iron block.
The break is flush. The idea is to place a low carbon nut and fill the void with a weld pool that will stick to the broken stainless/alloy stud.
It is non ferrous but seems lighter than normal.
The question,
I am thinking either TIG with ER309LS or a Arcaloy or equivalent. 309/l16 arc weld.
I have a Miller 220 AC/DC so I can do either.
Any experience out there with a 2014 Ford 6.7 diesel exhaust manifold stud project?
Thanks,
Jeff
