Lundahl will gap to whatever spec you want within reason, but don't expect to be able to adjust the gap after the fact. Amorphous is going to be better than steel generally.

Yes, you cut into one of these any you will destroy it.
why is that? Is it a matter of the am cores being so fragile?
Have you taken apart Lundahl transformers before?
no only vintage trans. I thought they would just be 2 Ccore pushed together with some sort of shim in there. Anyway. I found magnequests blog. Thats what I want. I don't care how long it takes. Its what I want.

What sort of MQ do you want? I have a couple pair of MQ outputs, one in M3 and the other in M4 cores. I think they are great transformers, especially the M3 S240's. I've never had nickel (or nickel pinstripe) or cobalt cores so don't know about them.

De gustibus non est disputandum
There are no bolts in the Lundahl, only a tack welded metal strap biding the two halves together that would need to be hack sawed. The gap is inside the coil, so getting alignment will be a challenge. Then you have the issue of replacing the metal band to hold it back together. Not saying you cannot do it, but it is not going to be anywhere as simple as an E I transformer with bolts.
