Francis, turn down the heat a bit on your welder, lay the rod in gap and do a swirl motion over it and you'll get better results. Works good when your welding thin to thick.

thanks Nick i will try thay next this is the first time i have welded thick to thin.

gunmaster, well if you have no idea what this it, you probably need to learn more about exhaust systems.

Shell, the cast mani idea never even made it on the car. thanks y'all

its a collector for a custom exhaust manifold, or commonly reffered to as a header. 4 different pipes come off the flange into a collector, which then goes into a pipe and come out the back of your car.

That stuff is looking really nice now man! It's good to see that you are "un-ghetto-rigging" your car That burn looks like it really hurts.

[Ngige]

Thanks all for the kind words, got some good presents from the ups lady, with more airflow comes the need for more fuel. As for the burn hurts like crap especialy when i get some fuel on it.
