It can be welded with a mig but you would be better off brazing it.  You
will have to be very careful with the braze because the tanks are held to
the core with solder.

For somebody who knows what they're doing, would welding a radiator
filler neck (steel, I think) to a stainless steel pipe be difficult?  I
want to relocate the filler on the GT8 engine to the highest point in
the system so I don't have to worry about trapped air.
