Sorry Charlie
Dad took that to have welded. I’ll ask if he remembers.

Do you know what rod he used? What alloy did you join to the manifold?

Thanks,

> Anyone know for sure the type of metal used for the 'middle layer' of the Renesis exhaust manifold? Not the bolt-on heat shield, but the outer welded layer that's about 0.1" thick. A magnet grabs it tightly, but it doesn't seem to rust, so that makes me think it might be some form of low grade stainless.
