weld header
I have a set of KOOKs headers that the AIR fitting "blew off" leaving a 3/4-1" hole in the top of the header.
What type of welder do I need to get this repaired? I believe I can have someone weld a small piece of metal over it as long as the welder is competent and uses the correct type of welder.
Thanks

Did the car backfire to do that? Just seems it would have cracked and you would have heard an exhaust leak for quite a while before that came all the way off.
Fyi. The original piece will be a lot easier to weld back in than a new piece. It might pay to keep looking for it. Surely you know roughly where it happened, no?
