measuring the cap..i.d is .670in..just under 11/16..o.d is .815in.. 13/16...         on the rollers, belt tug/jerking needs lighter....slippage needs heavier correct???????.....

That is about right bat unless springs are way off that should work. I re measurd the carb cap it too should work for you . The 15/16 I gave you was from outer thread to outer thread and a little generious to give you an idea

Hey, Batman.  The thin steel gets so hot when it's welded that it gets brittle all around the new weld. It'll keep happening.  I'll bet if you look close, the new crack is not exactly on the weld but right next to it.  Only real solution is to come up with rubber mounts or something to dampen vibration. And even then might still have to get new pipe. . .  >:(  Maybe try to find one made of thicker steel. 

Maybe a welder who knows how to keep things cool with a cooling gas during weld could prevent that.

Maybe got louder with packing cause exaust was being more forced out of crack?

  ???  Forgot which pipe your running. The 4t's are usually pretty strong. Maybe try a sleeve or patch over the weak link.

..i'm a fairly decent welder...and i had a fit re-welding my muffler back together after i cut it open that time...

..i used .030" stainless wire...which was too big, but all we use..

..i couldn't imagine trying to weld the pipe....

 Thanks
