Why is that flange so fat? 1''?Well, i was having these made at a machine shop and i had talked with him about making them out of 3/4" and making a pocket for the internal flaper to have plenty of flow.
After making the first one they will flow tons, but there just a little thick. so i will be cutting them down slightly.

Yeah right. I dont know shit about building cars. I will put a grand that says I can make a better downtube for that car than your 11 pie cut pile of junk. Put your money where your pie cut hole is.So then do it. You have no clue the space constraints yet think you will make one with a fucking u -bend. Get your head out of your ass and realize that you can't buy 2.5" u-bends with a fucking 1.5",1.75", 2" CLR.
I don't do pie cuts because there "JDM" i do them when there is no bend that will fit given the CLR.
I'm not going to argue with you over a downpipe. so drop it.

Look.... I wasnt bagging on your skills or any of that crap. Other people here are better welders and fabricators than I am by a long shot. I was just saying that that pipe could have been done in a more "cosmetically appealing" way. If you want to make the bet I am more than game but I wont hold your toes to the fire over it.

Appreciate the comments guys, even yours 63vet. I understand that your just saying I might have been able to use a bend...maybe in a different setup, but not with that tight of a clearance/bend. As for the uber typical Bubba comments, fun. I lol @ you when ever you need parts (which seems to be a lot) and actaully have to do something, who you go crawling to...LOL Keep up the good work.

Pie cutting is a joke and if you want me to post the link to yellowbullet of what people think of those "skillz" I would be happy to.
Delslow if you want it fixed let me know. I will split the grand with you.

Umm i'm confused as to what your talking about?

Well it is a stupid bet. there is not enough room to fit a u-bend. plain and simple if you saw the car in person it would show it very clearly. I don't know what your trying to prove here, but i can't see it being anything positive. So.....
You don't see me going into bill's thread and shitting on your welds/fab. So......

I guess you overlooked the "good Job" part of my post. The pie cut is junk plain and simple. We can debate it all day and if you want to shit on my welds feel free... when you can do better.

It was pretty simple. I asked the question "would you pay for this?" I added nothing more, it was a simple question.
Do you need further explanation? No mention of who did it or where it was done, just a question. Didnt you like the answers?
I thought maybe it was just me. -
You think that was the first thing i tried to do. pie cuts are not something i like to do. but there needed at times. I have never stated there the greatest thing ever. Your just being a doushe about it.

Your just being a doushe about it.No I wasnt, I just thought after seeing the nice job on the rest of the build that that part wasnt up to par. Even though Delslow aint on my top 10 favorite people, I still want him to get his moneys worth. Piecuts like that are subpar work period.
Oh and I dent recall ever "shitting on your welds".
