I thought I'd move this question over from the transaxle thread I started with the pilot bearing question.
I was trying to mount my Kennedy Engineering starter in the DRB (289 + G50) - and it did not fit - interference with the frame rail. So, having looked at a more recient frame pic (Thanks to Dave S.) it seems that DRB has modified the frame in this area to let the starters clear.
So, my question is this - the car's almost complete - can I weld on the rear chassis (right by the rear A-arm mount point) with all of the electronics installed? (MSD 6-AL, radio, all gauges etc.?)
if I keep the ground point within 6 inches of where I'm welding would that be sufficient - also, the battery is NOT connected, so only ground connections would be present to the rest of the electronics - should not be any conduction paths that I can think of.
What about the HF caused by the arc itself?
Same basic question for my Plasma cutter - as that's what going to be used to do the "trimming"?
it would be a real pain to try to disconnect everything at this point!
Thanks in advance for the help / advice!
