how hard does that motor spin ? im guessing its a torque monster like a diesal... kinda crazy to weld rods but whatever works...
i guess its not really that crazy since theyve started welding v8 together now to make a v16... :cool:

Exactly, or even snap off complety.

I dont have the tooling to cut it out. A sharp carbide burr on a long extension is all you need.
Here's another option that worked great for me. I used a Sawzall to cut it out, then a carbide burr to shape the roof and floor.
