Had a leak all its life so its amazingly clean. Take a look at the leak. Think I should MiG weld this all up, brass, or ? Have tiny holes at edges before, but not this.

J/K but it will work though.

If they are gonna drag race it then the welding with nickel needs to be the whole circumference of the tube to the iron carrier where it transitions on each side since on leaf cars hooking with traction bars sometimes the who center breaks loose and pivots the snout up on the launch
