[Healeys] aluminum shroud

[Curt/Nancy Arndt]

Richard,

I believe that the shroud alloy is closer to 1100 and not 3300.   I have
always used pieces of old shrouds for welding so that the weld material is
as close to the original as possible.

Any comments from the list?  I believe this has been discussed ad nauseum in
the past on the list.

Cheers,

Curt
