that would be one unholy bastard of a weld to do with stick but if you are brave enough to attempt it use NIrod. Don't get mad if it doesn't turn out that well. Tig with a nickel rod is the way to go.

If you're looking to save a buck, do the fit up, and take it to someone who has welded to cast iron before, the fitup is where most of the money usually goes...
I'm with I4sillypower it would be very tough.
also the clubs in his profile are hilariously awesome
