Finished my first V8 stainless ehaust. The car is a Nissan 240SX with a LS1 in it. 3" from the headers to single 3.5". Enjoy the pics.

Looks like it ought to work pretty well. It may not be the prettiest, but it certainly covers function well. The merge being the one thing that really stands out.
I do like the "sleeper" single muffler like any other 240 would have.
It's definitely better than any stainless exhaust I've got, much less made.
Got any sound clips?Comment

That is pretty impressive. Also that is one hell of a cool car!Comment

I will take a sound clip tonight since it was too late to take one last night. I finished about 1 am and had to be to work this morning at 9am.
The welds on the 16ga will look better once I get my .040 filler instead of this 1/16 that I am using. I hate the way 1/16 filler welds on 16ga. It is hard to control the puddle since you can't dab just a small amount.Comment

Very nice looking work.
I'm curious, but is there any specific reason for using the stainless?When the government pays, the government controls.Comment

That LS1 would eat the ass-end right off of my turd! I still love it, though. All 260 rwhp! LOL!Originally posted by Matt View PostProb not as fast as the mustang in your sigComment

It's what the customer wanted. The only reason to use it over steel is for the rust factor. I can't really think of any other reason though.Originally posted by 46Tbird View Post
The whole exhaust was back purged when I welded it.Comment

Nice work.
Whos merge is that? Looks like Burns.Comment

Bruns....bwuhuhhuh that shit has a tax on it. You use stainless because it looks better, better heat retention, doesn't rust. Down side is its $$$ and prone to cracking. Hell just the back purging will use up quite a bit of argon with that much area and with all the other consumables it adds up quick.89 dove grey lx, turbo blowthroughComment
