Pretty sure that the headers/cat are made from a mix of V low quality stainless + mild steel. Wire Mig welding is not a problem on that stuff.
Just take a look at the rust !!

You can mig weld it with stainless, too. Just use a Helium, Argon, Carbon Dioxide mix.

The bolts are mild steel...what a place to get cheap!! I usually end up cutting the bolts off (like for the tips or the muffler clamps) and replacing with good quality SS parts.

Cheers,

Mike
