ckau has a pic somewhere with the Howhit cover opened up with some mesh and the filter changed to a scotchbrite pad. Personally never had an overheating problem or wore out a belt. IMO to weld on the variator top might warp it. I think keeping the rollers/sliders checked on for wear & replacement as soon as you suspect it is most of the battle, watching the variator & clutch with the CVT cover off to verify alignment was done with every engine before I used them (all were used).
