Message	I asked Ash about your question and got a simple "no." The only thing that we could do differently is to have the metal forced into the mold via hydraulic ram. This would keep the metal from tearing as it shrinks in the cooling process. It would definitely make our lives easier in the process of ensuring there are no leaks once the end tanks have been welded to the cores themselves.
