save yourself the headache & weld those panels in. thats what i did on my neon. i know a good welder can be expensive, but flux core welders arent worth a damn. i promise you will be better off if you just weld those suckers in

Hmmmm. May want to listen to him, he's done a thing or two with metal work before...

I agree with Dan and Sean.

Do it right the first time, or you're going to be kicking yourself in the ass later.

Well... you'll be in line to kick yourself while the rest of us are kicking you, at least.

yeah im going to go with the welding, i dont feel like dropping out the motor mid-seasons and fixing the firewall, and this work why get lazy now, im just worried about metal warpping, should i hammer and dolly as im welding it. the welder im using isn't really cheap its a lincoln migpak 140, the reason im not using a "real" welder, is do to only 110 at the girlfriends, it is a ture mig , i just didn't have any gas for it so i was using flux core, could i get away with using flux core on this stuff dan or do i need to go buy a bottle of gas. im using .030 wire would it be better to drop to a small wire? any pointer you can offer helps.

Ok I just read thru your thread and I love ur car great work. But I have a question... I also will be shaving my engine bay but, I am new to this . What kind of welding is necessary for this? I am a big noob to welding, I obviously wont be doing the welding myself, but I know there's different types of welders so what do I ask for?? I want to start this project next week but all my questions are holding me up lol

LaidNeon · Post by **LaidNeon** » Sun Apr 04, 2010 2:06 am

when welding in those filler plates. tach it in every inch or so. once you make one pass, let it cool down. then weld another round. Patience is key with this. after every couple rounds, grind the welds smooth. Pay attention to how hot the metal is & as long as you do that, you wont warp the metal. PATIENCE is key, trust me

1972demon · Post by **1972demon** » Sun Apr 04, 2010 5:55 am

would cooling the welds with a wet rag , be a good or bad idea?

LaidNeon · Post by **LaidNeon** » Sun Apr 04, 2010 12:51 pm

that would still warp it. i usually put a fan next to the panel i am working on to help cool it.

1972demon · Post by **1972demon** » Sun Apr 04, 2010 1:02 pm

Alright I'm going to give it my best tomorrow, if worse comes to worse, I guess I'm getting out the shrinking hammer and dollies.

1972demon · Post by **1972demon** » Mon Apr 05, 2010 4:10 pm

this better sean, thanks for the heads up guys this is turning out pretty good so far, its hard to wait between cool down , likely i have some motor parts that need painting.

TheRandom1 · Post by **TheRandom1** » Mon Apr 05, 2010 4:12 pm

Much better! You could work on multiple holes at once if you are worried about not letting it cool enough.

NeonOn19s · Post by **NeonOn19s** » Mon Apr 05, 2010 4:12 pm

looking good.
