One of the reasons the CA economy has flourished is because you can breathe the air, unlike the 1970s

Make sure whatever shop you may choose to do the welding feels comfortable with it and believes it is the right one - perhaps the one with the inspector if you can swing it. I did not look up engines but odds are that may be the right one for your application.
