DeleriousZ · 04-07-2014, 09:07 AM

Goddamn, what's one of those billet collectors worth anyway?

ka-titties · 04-07-2014, 12:40 PM

[email protected] To get in early on the billet collectors. They will be officially for sale soon.

McRussellPants · 04-08-2014, 01:12 AM

are you pulsing to get that or just mega bead space?

ultimateforce · 04-08-2014, 08:24 AM

Why not both?

(I always use pulse on stainless because it makes me slow down and keep my gas coverage.)

Collector for a manifold I'm working on.

tauntdevil · 07-14-2014, 05:27 PM

Sorry for the idiotic question but I was wondering where you guys get the prebend tubing like this from:

Photo of material here
(Link to pic so its not a repost)

Looks like its already embeveled at the ends and clean. I am use to buying 180 degree J bends and cutting them to specs but was wondering where to get this version.

Sorry for the dumb question and thank you in advance.

Bert Spaid · 07-20-2014, 04:07 PM

Seeing all the stuff you guys do a great job on I thought I would post some of my last build.Iam fixing to do a 90 240 for my son.

first time at the strip

the truck unpin's to this

KevinEdgar · 08-15-2014, 02:05 PM

This thread inspired me to learn welding since it is one of the things I don't know how to do. Started Arc welding this week and it's really fun, nothin worthy of posting.

But please, post more inspiring work and tips! Thanks Blu808 for this thread.

connors13 · 09-01-2014, 09:49 PM

tube front i did on my car. radiator support and headlight brackets come off by unbolting 6 bolts to make it a little easier to work on. not 100% done, still need to make the tube bumper, bumper supports and fender brackets

the-rusty-240 · 09-01-2014, 10:07 PM

Now that is how you make a tub/tube front end ^ perfect front end fitment. Not this shit you see some of these guys making that looks hagered as fuck. Bravo :thumbup:

Clutch Dog · 10-14-2014, 12:41 AM

i wanna have sex with you so bad right now

this welding is really gorgeous.. could you make me a set of headers for a 1uz into an S14?

its next to impossible to find a good set of flowing headers in the states, esp with the steering shaft in the way

All depends on the size of tubing you want to use for the headers as well as the rest of the exhaust pipe. Would have to see the fitment to be able to tell imo but I am sure someone else here can answer it more accurately. Just depends how you mount the engine as well (hence why I ask for photos).

Clutch Dog · 10-14-2014, 04:32 AM

yeah, its the brett collins kit for the motor, and I'd have to get a few pictures of the engine mounted without any header at all, with the driveshaft re-installed.
