Great point about the unreliable brazing joints. I had similar thoughts, but more about bowing of the aluminum plates. Therefore, I do plan on pressure testing it to something like 50 psi (well above what it would see in operation) before putting it in use. But, with your comment I think I'll do some brazing on some scrap before going right at the trans! Thanks.
