Thanks for the replies chaps :)
It was welded by a professional welder and it was pre heated so it should be ok :?
It was a free, knackered casing anyway, the barrel studs had been helicoiled (not very well) and the welding was a favour ;) so no problems if its no good :)
I`ll let you know how i get on.

I think the welding looks well done... and if its been properly pre heated I would think it should be fine... 8-)

I've had a couple done now too: Not stud conversions, just extra material (for R250 + a 3rd. case transfer)

I always leave in the max to help against distortion: Mag where possible, mag studs + bolts, driver bearing, cylinder studs(not poss here I know). Convinced it helps. The pictured case will need a good amount removed again to fit the Mag Housing.

I am convinced thare are good gains from the effort involved...as Alan Diablo says
