either a jumbo #12 or a extra long #4 both on a #9 torch.

Your work is amazing. I just got convinced of who to contact for my next port work. Beautiful work...period. Also I'd like to say your latest post awesome as well...but with an office chair in one shot, and a random supercharged 4 cyl in another deserves a "Like a BOSS!" emoticon. Lmao......

Yeah they are not cheap.

Have you tried polishing the exhaust more to keep carbon from building up?

negative sir, waste of time imo but thats just me. 60-80 grit for everything, carbon is going to stick not matter what.


mike

thanks guys nothing special used just the standard issue carbides and catridge rolls. with pneumatic die grinders.

I see a little bit of overlap, and lack of fusion on the root side of your butt weld. Also, why so many starts and stops? Overall, not bad. Keep at it! i dont know about the fusion as its all single pass.... but its all good, im a mechanic by trade not welder. i just know how to burn metal together...
