innershield/flux core vs. gas are just different methods to get the same thing: atmospheric shielding. The limiting factor for weld penetration (and thus strength with thicker material) is amperage. The correct amperage for any joint is based on electrode size (wire thickness) and material...

It's all original to the car. Only thing I've changed so far is all four tie-rod ends. I'm going to be going through all the suspension/steering bits and bobs and replacing all the joints and bushings and such over the next few months. Everything is pretty haggard but those tie rod ends were...
