Welding on 6r bellhousing

[nvrstuk]

I have so many irons in the fire I can't even remember if I asked this or not! lol

Any alloy issues welding on a 6r bellhousing?
I think Bruiser was going to or ???

Would like to close the starter hole. Not necessarily looking for a ton of strength, sure don't want to weaken it but wouldn't mind adding strength when closing it up.

Shouldn’t be a big deal. Welded lot of bell housings and transfer cases over the years.

I didn't think so either... Just Wondering if there's any exotic alloys in the 6R

Like magnesium


No Idea, I just like putting water on a magnesium fire
