Custom Exhaust for my L99

Here are some pics of my new cat-back for my summit white L99 SS.
Hand-fabricated x-over...

All TIG welded..

Getting ready to attach to the front...

Tomorrow resonators and dumps at axles to gauge muffler needs.

Beautiful work! Shame to hide it under the car. Looking forward to seeing & hearing the finished exhaust

Thanks Mac. After years of every other kind of welding, I prefer TIG.

I bought one a year ago and have only logged about an hour or two. I need to practice! What brand Tig are you using?

Smoother filler with Miller!!
Practice is great, and a good hand to show some of the tricks.
I wish I had more hours on TIG too, I did mostly wire and stick for my career.
It's coming along. Hope it sounds good.

I missed a Dynasty 200 right before I picked up my Lincoln 175 Pro Tig. I wish I scored the Miller but got a smoking deal at $600 for mine and it was pretty much brand new.
