i dont know if coloration indicates a good weld...being its that color because of the heat....although the welds do look really good....either way once its on a running car the whole manifold will be that color anyways...

Coloration of a weld is good. A weld with zero color or that looks black shows contamination of either material, filler, or the tungsten. Again, color = good.

No color indiciates the weld was either welded to hot or has contamination in it. Heat is irrelevant to the coloration.

no experience ...hahahaha
coloration comes from clean, continuous welds...and if you continuously weld...it gets hot...which forms the color!
but what do i know about welding....

i never said you didnt know anything about welding....i know if you go run a short bead it will color...i never said it wouldnt so i dont know where you got that impression....i'm just saying that the color comes from the heat..
I said that coloration comes from a clean continous weld...
....integra gsr ...i've tig welded on aluminum, and some different kinds of steel...i havent made any manifold or anything like nick has....
sure i'll stop by the shop ...run some beads for you just for fun...but you can find someone else to weld for ya.
