silver brazing help!

[alienboy366]

Is silver solder for copper pipes something you could use for silver brazing? I need to join copper plumbing pieces to a steel intake manifold to make something offset. Is there something else that can be used, something I can get at Home Depot or Lowes?

I've used brass to join copper to steel, like in our HT exhaust pipe on a chopper...Have had no problems with it. I use propane/oxygen. Steel will take more heat to to accommodate the silver, thus the copper might get too hot..
Someone might have a better answer for you.

Do I need to use a flux for brass filer? any chance i can use my copper water based flux?
