I dont think a muffler shop can fix this area that needs to be welded. It is in a very tight spot:

The exhaust runner with the red line on it is the damaged one in these photos, the red circle is the area underneath we are gonna look at in the following pictures:




This looks more to be a severe corrosion then a crack:








......pretty nasty ****. Explains why I was feeling exhaust gas being pushed towards the driver side fender.

I am in contact with the seller and we are hopefully gonna settle this with out involving a Paypal claim.

SUCKS because the powder coating came out so nice. The passanger side doesnt leak and is in great shape.

 

Weld it from the inside......

 

how did you hi-temp powder coat the headers? SOme people use their barbeque grill.

You didn't notice that when you were prepping?

 

Man that sucks. I hope you get that straitened out in your favor.

 

Yeah i missed it on prep. It is a very small hole and hard to see that area UNLESS something like this catches your attention in that general area.
When i was sand blasting it was just dirty and rusty in the area but extremly hard to articulate the bead blaster to get that whole area. The only reason it is really visible now is because of the silver color.

I baked it at my work where we have a large 4' circular kilm

 

Maybe......but i doubt you could get a good weld due to the carbon. Prepping would be a bitch plus i dont think you could get a mig tip down there.

 

Thanks man

 

So anybody want these? I am willing to let them go for 75.00, you just pay for shipping.
