Tons of stuff over on metal meet. Im going to fab a set of headers for my 3.6. I like the SCARGO headers so Im going to mimic them.

Bends are not cheap so mock up is key. Depending on steel vs SS. SS pipe requires backpurging. I see guys on tv welding SS without backpurging and they are big shops. Drive me nuts as they should know better. Also tight fitment is better. TIG welding is preferred and usually requires gas lenses set up for tight areas. Tack as you go so you can test fit and easy to break if you need to change/refit.
