Ill check tomoroww, I know you can weld steel to stainless, because Kooks first put steel brakets on my Borla mufflers, then when they did my system over this year, he put stainless ones on, Ill check about the aluminum-steel tomoroww though because now im getting it all mixed up in my head.

Well, if you can't find anyone to weld it I could get it done for $50; but you'd have to bring it here.
