opened the box from stieners with the new manifold for the m-5 and found this
will be chatting with stieners in the am. murphy has moved back in again :roll:
the funny part alan is it was in a bigger box with 2 other continental manifolds that where poured in foam?? not a scratch on those.(quoted from post at 20:16:44 02/25/18) That looks like they didnt package it properly. They or the post office owe you
a new one.

Too bad no overpaid union baztards will cast anything in our country anymore.
yes I think your right MNGB I loaded it in the truck tonight will be taking it into a machine shop in the city I use for any machine work I need on welders, great people, and very good machinists. got thinking about all the hassle and money shipping back to stiener, arguing over who and how it got broke :roll: just a lot easier to take it into people who know what they are doing, get it fixed and be done with it. a lot less money,time and stress :lol:(quoted from post at 21:49:52 02/25/18) That's not good hope they send you a new onw

thanks MNGB I dropped it off at clan machine and john looked it over, says he's not sure if its white cast but said it shouldn't be a problem to fix. just bring it up to red hot weld temp slowly, weld it up, and let it cool slowly, apparently he will put it in a hot oven after and gradually bring the temp down over 24 hours. I will post pics of it when I get it home.(quoted from post at 11:23:15 02/27/18) Hi I think your on the right path get it repaired locally and your done with it, that was my first thought when I seen the picture that it could be repaired, good luck will be following your thrad to see how it turns out

MNGB I was very happy, john at clan machine is a very talented welder and machinist, very few shops will even look at a cast metal welding job. john said he v ground it out, heated it red hot, welded it with nichol rod, and then put it in a hot oven to cool down gradually overnight. then resurfaced carb face, just a touch up as it did not warp anywhere. as unc said its 10% skill and 90% wichcraft :lol:(quoted from post at 22:10:35 03/09/18) That looks as good as new the machine shop knew what they were doing
