@Box stock T.  You should come to the drags at Virginia this weekend if it doesn't get rained out again.

Last night I dragged the stars into alignment and was able to finally repair my patchwork quilt dump pipe

 

Knew it was cracked badly from the noise that had been getting worse but was really hoping I could weld it up in-situ

 

Hmmm

Quick wire brush and hit it with the tig

Hopefully it's only a short term fix and next time I can utilise these...from the SMB leftover pile, dealt with through work and gave me these for $25 - score!

Means I don't have to spend time making a temporary forming tool/hitting tube with a 2lb ball pein..

Xforce quality at it again ! 

 

To be fair it didn't crack thru the welds this time but the previous two times it did

It hangs too long imo

 

Ralph I'm pretty sure the transition was a 1off proto for the FG which they never went ahead with, from memory they have a different part for the B series

Will ask if you like. Flanges will be no problem, I actually got a couple laser cut out a while back but in 10mm staino not 12mm
