my uncle has a '73 harley, and a '61 harely. well hes been working on the '73, put a new kick starter in. while doing the kick starter he noticed a crack in the block, somebody did a quick fix with jb weld. he would rather have it welded, since i have the welder in the family i guess im gonna do it for him. my ? is, what wire and gas should i use, and would flux core be ok? ive never welded aluminum, and i heard mig isnt the way to go but thats what i have. he said looks dont matter becuase you cant see it when the motor is mounted. the black with flames is the '73 he hates the flames but thats how he bought it, and the silver is the '61. ive never rode a harley before but i sat on them the other day and man their heavy. maybe im just weak. thanks for the help.
