Weld on or Bolt On SFC's????

Weld-On or Bolt-On SFC's???? I am thinking about the bolt on as there appears to be a little less work involved. Is there a huge difference between the two? Any input is appreciated.

Thanks,
Andy

if you go bolt in, bolt them in, then have them welded. it will work out just fine like that, the biggest problem with bolt ins, is that over time the bolt holes elongate.

i would say whatever you get, get them welded up.

Thanks for the input. I have a 70 AMP Stick (ARC) welder. Would this be good enough?

I used a 110V flux wire feed without any problem. (I think mine is rated at 80amps set to high)
I have 2 sets of rino ramps that I set the car on for the job.

Thanks for the input. I think I see a set of Jeg's SFC's in my near future.
