    here is this side allmost done when all tubes look good i wire wheel them and look for any thing that i miss or need to work off some of the weld if it needs some sanding i try not to do any of this sanding on the tubes but some times it has to be done. i will fire up the mig for tacking up the tubes it is fast i like to use vise-grips to hold the tubes all group up were the collector will be. then i take them off and tig weld in side of the ports. the top of the flange will have a 3/4 mig weld on the out side of the tube i think this helps keep the tubes for moving and cracking in time after this is done i will weld the collector on
