Mark,

Zoltan is talking about stainless steel welding. Stainless steel is the type
of material your Stebro muffler is made of, and does not mean how pretty the
weld will be. Stainless steel is a type of material that will discolor over
time, but it's material properties are what is important. Anyone can weld
some type of steel to stainless, but if it is not compatible, you will have
to do it again, and you will have to pay money again $$$...
