Welding Muncie broken ears... any suggestions???

[hubleyman]

Well..... I recently discovered the original numbers trans to my 69 Z is a real M22 (it's been stashed away for years because of one broken mounting tab or "ear" and I never even bothered to check it out).

As such, I would now like to weld the tab back on to the main case and put it back in the car. Have any of y'all had good luck with doing such a thing and do you have some pointers for me (other than get a professional to do the actual welding)?

I'm not trying to make it a flawless undetectable repair, but would like it to look fairly clean and original when done. FYI, it's the top left tab so it's a little hard to see once installed in the car....

Ideas? Do's and don'ts? Thanks! Charlie
