I think you need rods for the cast Iron first, I have seen these on ebay, I am not sure what number they are. Maybe you could practice on some scrap first and see how good a weld you get.

S Shadow Works Member Messages 10 Dec 26, 2006 #4 I dont know about Bradford but I am sure some of these guy on here can guide you. Is that a normal CAT or a sports one? Maybe you could weld up a collar so you can swap the CAT for a straight through pipe.
