[DeTomaso] Welding question? Stainless with MIG

[Dave Londry]

Yes - but I'm planning to finish the bleed tube weld onto my SS cooling 
tube.
Still non-structural, only cooling system pressure on a 3/8" joint.
308 flux core and Solar Flux B brushed on the back if I can buy a small 
enough container.

Thanks and also to Ken and Thomas for the ideas.
