I hear ya. I was showering in sweat welding in the shop today.

I don't know about aluminum inserts but this is a common problem with the 5.4l's. They use steel insterts for the repair. You might have better luck trying to use one of those. NAPA sells them if I recall.

looks pretty sick! Good work sir.

An update on the car. She's on the road and running around. I'll be going to the harbor house cruise ins when my schedule and weather allows. I used a set of wheels and tires off one of my other cars because I haven't been able to get with the guy who has the set I need. I put an economy...
