  • It is EXHAUSTING work, but we are going to fully Custom Fabricate the Exhaust on the 1965 GMC C10 Build! A full custom exhaust fabrication project is always a fun time! In this one we will connect the LS swap engine to the Cherry Bomb Mufflers, and out to the Side Exit Exhaust. Complete with how I work with mandrel bends, tip & tricks for exhaust building, and even a H Pipe crossover exhaust pipe. Oh and Masking Tape!

    Alan - I think this is one of the best videos you have made! You gave in-depth coverage of the complex details of designing and fabricating an intricate and unique system, and the narration and visual aspects are exceptional!
    I already use masking tape a lot for various tasks, but you showed some unique applications I hadn't thought of.
    I'll be eager to see the 'big reveal' of the product you are working on for marking cuts on U-bends.

    Great job on the exhaust, I weld 'em up to but I use stainless and a MIG. I fit the pipes with band clamps that have windows in them and space the tubes1/16" apart, crank the gas up and fill the space with stainless wire. We aren't talking about sanitary welding here and my system seems to work very well, I just move and weld at an angle forward of the weld pool to preheat and purge. There's a little sugar on the inside of the weld but never a broken pipe or had anything shake apart and the first system I did is still working 11 years later

    Hope to see you back sometime soon man, I miss your videos! Question, on those urethane grommet mounts... have you had an issues with those melting on this project, or others you've used them on? I've seen mixed reviews about them melting, I'm looking to use them in about the same manner/ distance from pipe as you've used them by the trailing arm crossmember, and don't want to end up having to change it because the mounts failed....

      Sadly I don't have any upcoming videos here. Sooner or later I'll make more, but I cannot afford to do so for now. However I make almost weekly UA-cam videos still (and have for years now) on my 2 other channels. Mostly focused around 3d Printing and "Making" things with 3D printing (including parts for the 65 GMC).

    Great video as usual. Would you MIG or TIG this exhaust in general (the mild steel one, I understand the stainless needs to be TIG) or does it depend?

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  3 роки тому

      I’d normally TIG weld entirely. As I didn’t anticipate doing this exhaust on this trip I ended up having to MIG it. Which is fine, just not my preference personally.

  • @brysontrotman5865
    @brysontrotman5865 3 роки тому +1

    Do you have any tips on starting to weld with flux core for body work. I know for body work it is best to use mig with gas but I simply dont have access to that right now. Thanks!

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  3 роки тому

      Practice welding as low of "Temperature" settings as you can. Practice practice practice. Flux core automatically welds hotter at a given setting so it is going to be a challenge and an uphill battle but you've got to do what you've got to do.
      I prefer not to MIG anything, especially not body work personally but my ideals aren't your situation.

    • @HotRodHippie
      @HotRodHippie  9 місяців тому

      It cost me money to make videos. After years of effort they never paid the bills and I could not justify continuing. Making videos about building cars is requires building cars, which is expensive. Most successful folks in this game have shops that pay the bills and they just make videos on the side. Or they blew up and make so much off videos they don't have to worry about the rest.
      I make videos for a living now, about 3D Printing & making things with 3D Printing. It pays my bills and doesn't cost me an arm and a leg to make every video: ua-cam.com/users/mandicreally}
      I will still make videos here, they will just be few and far between.

      @@gilhernandez605 if you don’t understand that Figuring out angles of triangles (the most basic geometry / trigonometry that fabricators do DAILY), is a part of building an exhaust like this, I don’t know what to tell you. And Physics? Understand how forced applied to an object will effect it is important. You just don’t view the way you interact with the world in the context of scientific principles. If you slow down and open your mind up a bit you’d realize just how much you really do. Knowing how a piece of metal will react when you apply force to it (grinding, hammering, saw) is a form of understanding physics…
