One other thing about welding your own cage should you decide to do it. (I second what the other guys said). CE recommends a mig with at least 130 amp for proper penetration. Most home 110volt migs don't quite get that high. You probably need a 220 volt mig which would be overkill for most home mechanics. Your better off renting the mig if you do decide to go that route.

The start retard is usually used on high compression engines to let the starter turn the motor with less effort.
