Fabricating Exhaust Parts -EricTheCarGuy

Опубликовано 27 июня 2014, 10:42

Fabricating exhaust parts is not something that you will always need to do but when you do need to, it's good to have the right tools and know how. In this video I fabricate the 'A' pipe on my 1993 Acura Vigor. The OE part is no longer available and if it was it would be VERY expensive. I could not find the part in the aftermarket either. That meant that I had to make my own pipe. Through a combination of cutting, grinding, heating, and welding, I was able to make it happen. It may not be pretty, but at least it's quiet. With a little more practice with my welder I think I'll have this. No matter what, I hope the information in this video can help you if you're confronted with a similar situation. If not, I hope you're entertained by the video as you watch me learn how to weld exhaust pipes.
