awesome keep up the ambition. I remember years ago at a street rod show in Owensville ohio when my friends intake manifold had a problem. a hole appeared the size of a pencil eraser. casting must have finally gave up some sand. we j b welded it in the parking lot of an oriellys I believe. cut out a piece of a beer can patched it and in a couple hours we were on our way. moral of the story never underestimate the power of beer cans j b weld and more beer. keep up the good work.that is just making memory's but i will all way keep cans on hand for more of them
