Heres a few tricks
1 Want to cut a straight line on a tube, just tighten a hose clip around the tube and its a guide for a hacksaw or cutting disc
2 to pull all your primary pipes together into a cloverleaf pattern before connecting up the collector flange, just pull them all together with a big hose clamp and start welding.

those tips seem pretty useful, I wish I knew them a couple days ago. I think I got the pass side pipes close enough to pull them into one collector. Of course I didn't buy enough bends and now I have to wait to finish the driver side.
My grandfather, mom's side, drove a 39 Plymouth coupe when I was about 4 or 5 and I thought it was pretty cool and I loved the tail fins on the 49 Cadillac. I drew cars when I was in the 5th and 6th...
How did you get hooked on cars?
