Made some progress today with the downpipes. Just dumping them out the side of the car for now. Once its running we'll worry about how the F to run a 3.5" DP over the K-member on the drivers side. Thanks again Matt. LOVE the work, and the fact that this is just a little project that my best friend is chipping away at in the little free time he has! Sorry for the low quality pictures, they were sent to me as text messages then uploaded from my SD card.

Looks like you're making progress! Question, did someone weld the pipe together using a mig welder and a series of tack welds? I see that the flange was put on with a tig, but the other weld looks like a series of tacks from a mig. That's likely to crack and/or leak. I would absolutely weld that in one continuous bead. Mig tends to start a weld a little cold and then come up to temp as you weld and build heat in that weld. Tacks never really fuse the metal consistently (because they start "cold" and then you stop before you really get the weld "going"). If those are done how I think they are, I'd run a bead over them (which will also remove the craters in the center of each spot weld...craters can lead to cracking). Of couse this is all assuming that I see what I think I see.
