[DeTomaso] Welding question? Stainless with MIG

[Art Stephens]

Steve,
I MIG welded my stainless PI mufflers to my exhaust pipes.  IIRC I was going 
to do the same thing by just tacking them together and having someone else 
finish them up.  It turns out that my mig job was good enough so that I 
never had to have anyone else work on them,  and I am not much of a welder.
