I'm not sure if the wanted section is the right place for this, let me know if not. I want to pay someone to tig this for me: ![](http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz50/supereightyfour/IMG_20140521_212924_zps5b68edb0.jpg) ![](http://i812.photobucket.com/albums/zz50/supereightyfour/IMG_20140521_212835_zps050ea1e5.jpg) It's an aluminium turbo manifold and a throttle body that need welding together. The gap between them maybe goes up to 2.5mm, and the manifold's a little bit thin on top, should be ok though. I'll travel further than Nuneaton/Hinckley but close would be nice.

Thanks. Olliminium has some nice photos on that page. There's a guy local to me who would do it but he's a bit of a nozzle, I'd rather go a bit further to find someone who does a good job.

I've not used them myself, but there's a place around the trinity marina complex that do tig (p m fusion I think), also tunicliff engineering on derby road hinckley, I have used them for machining work and talked to the owner who built lots of bits for the revival D-type replicas
Whoever you get to weld it! Can I suggest is you clean it the very best you can with thinners and scrub it with a toothbrush, any hint of oil will contaminate the weld, and if you're getting someone to look over the job any contamination will be an instant turn off for them, also scribe some match marks so it can be re-positioned easily, especially if they can't do it while you wait, basically make their job the easiest you can.
There is also retro power, who if they cannot do it themselfs could probably reccomend someone.
