The weld els I was talking about are cast "mandrel" bent pieces, cheep and as durable as you can get.

I guess its time for a trip to the industrial supply store, what grade of steel or stainless is best without costing an arm and a leg?

I like 304L schedule 10 pipe because it's cheep and easy to weld

cool beans, so it tig welding better on a manifold?

setzep 03-16-2004 09:23 PM

Yup, TIG worked awsome. Most of my manifold I just fusion welded, only used a little filler rod here and there..
