thanks to all who answered,

I need to know if brazing would be strong enough or do I remove the elbow and swap it with the one on my tractor now?

Thanks
Dave

I would forget brazing because it usually isn't strong enough. If you ever worked with a henrob torch or oxy-accy Harris - Welco makes a welding rod that really works well for the expirenced welder. It's called KAST WELD 111. If you arn't comfortable with gas welding perhaps you have a mig welder. It sounds strange but sometimes you will have great results with a mig welder because it uses the minium heat necessary and that is good for cast iron; the more heat the more problems. Another thing that works for cast iron welding that again sounds bad but works is weld for an inch or two and imedeitly take the sharpened pointed end of your chipping hammer and beat the weld. This doesn't mean pounding the piece enough to break it, just enough to dimple the hot yet now frozen weld. This tends to relieve the internal stress in the weld and you will less cracks. You could fill in the damaged area with sch. 40 pipe of the correct dia. I would get some old cast iron, get it perfectly clean (sand blasting-glass beading) and pratic on the junk piece, there is where you can get all of the mistakes out of the way. Such an exhaust pipe repair I've done many times and I'm sure with a little pratice you can too.

The metal looks pretty thin and it may have cracks in it that you can't see until you start to weld it. Will the muffler slide over the damaged area to hide it? Even if you have to cut the end of the elbow off a little, it might be the easiest thing to do if possible. You risk messing up your manifold trying to get old elbows ones off.
