Be very careful with that set oxyacetylene tanks. I'm getting ready to do some oxyacetylene welding.
Warping in welding is caused by shrinkage of weld metal, faulty clamping of parts, faulty preparation and overheating of joints. Distortion in welding is caused by uneven heating, improper sequence and the shrinkage of the deposited metal.
Oxyacetylene Welding is not used in high responsibility fusion welding because fusion welding requires two metals to be fused without melting whereas Oxyacetylene Welding involves the melting of metals so this process is not suitable. By Makeveli

The Oxyacetylene welding process (OAW) is known for it's flexibility and mobility, and is mostly used in all metalworking industries, but is commonly used for maintenance and repair work.

If by gas welding you mean-oxyacetylene welding. The difference is just that arc welding requires a darker shade of lens. When oxyfuel gas welding (OFW) usually a shade 5 lens is recommended. When arc welding, a minimum of shade 10 lens should be used (actually shade should be determined by amount of current used).
5O2 + 2C2H2 --> 4CO2 + 2H2O + Qoxygen + acetylene -> carbon dioxide + water + heat-energy
