I use my gas grill for heating up things that need to be heated. Leave it on high for a half hour or so with the lid down and you'll be suprised how hot it will get your parts. Use this also to heat rusty parts so they'll disassemble easier. Put the part on the grill, run it on high for an hour or so, shut it off, leave it closed, and check it in the morning.

Also, be carefull on cast that is supposed to get hot. Welding with a similar metal (gas cast iron welding rod) will expand nearly the same when the manifold gets hot again. Not sure about the nickel rods though.

Good luck..........
