      Haa... i do it in one pass! Just need the right kind of weld! "N-RIG" welding


      Some of my work! notice no seams!

                  Well I guess function over form?










                  Have to weld a bend at the end of the 2-1 collectors, one EGR bung and two 02 sensor bungs, then they will be blasted, coated and they are OUT OF HERE!!!

                  Hope they will pass yall's approval

                    They look great, and I am sure they will look even better coated.

                    I can't wait for you to start on headers for the Grand Am.

                      Grand Am coming soon. The j-bodies were lacking and didn't take advantage of the three beta sets, so once the 2 of those are finished we will be moving on to other body styles

                            talk about a motor that needs them but has never had them... AFAIK anyway.

                              Milzy does 96-97 ones. And as far as I know only 3 sets have been done in a W with a 91-95 engine, 2 of which went through the sub frame and one lost a bit of ground clearance.

                                yeah.... after seeing milzy's port work, i'm not even going to consider anything else that requires this kind of precision.
