How are you welding it? Mig?

Yeah. Thats why the welds turned out not so good looking as I could not locally source ER308L wire. Supposed to run straight argon too from what I have been told vs my typical 80/20.
It will suffice for a couple summers until the 6.2 is ready to go in to replace the 5.3 and the exhaust will likely be redone at that time.

Good morning guys,
yesterday was a bad day for us, my mother-in-law passed away.
I loved her, she was always so very helpful, everything was about everyone else and never about herself. I still remember to this day when she brought me water every morning, she was always afraid that I would get dehydrated.
And a real hardworking woman she was too, came from Malaysia and worked until she was 89-90 as a seamstress, he is a tailor, and was very skilled at his work.

My wife is trying to get a quick flight home, with the Middle East conflict, simple travel is very difficult, she will probably not make it home before the funeral is over in Singapore.
Some people are not missed until they are gone. I think you were fortunate to appreciate haveng her while you did but but that fact makes the sorrow worserer.. Condolences for your families loss.

No need for backpurge with mig? I'm not criticizing I'm just curious because I'll need to do some exhaust welding at some point.
