RE: Welding exhaust manifolds

[Jonas Karlsson <jkarlsso@metabolex.com>]

There's a product, don't know how effective, that is made to fix cracks 
in exhaust manifolds and exhaust pipes. It's called "ThermaSteel" or 
something like that. Supposedly (according to the package) it withstands 
extremely high temps, and uses heat to cure. 
You could give it a try, it's only like $4, so if it works it's a cheap 
fix.
