Anyone good at aluminum welding and fill?

Subject: Anyone good at aluminum welding and fill?
by Durango_Boy on 2010/3/21 2:23:33

I am looking for someone with the equipment and skill to fill some slots in my carb adapter with aluminum so I can trim the bottom flange of the carb adapter to fit my manifold perfectly, and re-drill my own mounting holes.

What about an epoxy for aluminum, allowing me to fill the slots, let it cure, trim the base to fit, and drill. I just need whatever is used to be as strong as the aluminum around it, and be able to polish it like the aluminum around it.

The slots are what make this all difficult. If I trimmed it as is, half of each slot would be cut off and I would basically have four 'hooks' left to take the pressure of the mounting bolts.

If someone thinks they can fill the holes with aluminum allowing me to do what I want to do, I would gladly pay shipping and labor.
