Yes making the entire exhaust, from block to tips all hand made stainless, going to be a good time

Sidenote SuperSprints look like absolute s*** (as far as the build quality) to be honest
Also learn as much as you can from your pops, if he has all that equipment. I wish I had learned more from my gramps when he was alive.

Update time
Headers continued
More chop
More tape
Test fit of first runner, driver side is most difficult as the steering shaft/box is within a few inches of the engine block in areas
Me pretending to be the body of the car
The thing to keep in mind is that you have to be able to get to the fasteners for attaching the headers once its all welded together
Now that the first runner is mostly located I could move to the collector
You want to make sure you have "place holders" in during the build as this fit into the collector should be very tight, bundle a few short sections of straight tube together
Now your ready to continue with the runners
After dropping the body back down onto the engine/sub-frame and bolting all back together, it was evident I needed to do a few more tweeks
Its getting closer
And its tacked together
1st runner is tacked, only 7 more!
This first runner is the most important one, everything else will be built off this, it pays dividends to get it right now rather than later
Till next timesigpic

Header time continued!
Tape, Tack, Weld, repeat
These two runners are critical, I lowered the body back onto the sub-frame to check the fit before tacking
A little close for comfort,need to rework this one a little bit
Checking clearance on the collectors, everything looks pretty good
Sub-frame out again, rinse repeat
Fixed the runner nearest the steering shaft
Moved to the second runner
Tack em
3 fully tacked and set, just 5 more to go!
That is all I got for this updatesigpic
