I'm gonna order some fat glass cups to really get the material shielded , and gonna back purge on the stuff I'm putting in my car . I think once I get the hang of it , I'm gonna make a set of manifolds from my long tubes. They got hit hard on i90 by a fiberglass body panel in the fast lane and are cobbed and migged after two primaries got crushed.

3rd attempt on a tig torch . About 30 minutes total of tig welding. Far from perfect but certainly pleased with the progress!

Twin scroll flanges welded to elbows . Feel like I'm picking this up quick, but all my piping is 16 gauge so we will see how it goes . On a side note this kit is back up for sale . I bought a twin setup meant for the gto
