How to build an automotive Exhaust System from scratch!

My 1966 C2 Corvette gets the exhaust system installed. A tubing kit, a welder, and some patience is all it takes to put together a custom exhaust system for any car. See how I did it on my Corvette project in this video.

The wood blocks and ratchet straps combo is a great idea for maintaining location, orientation, and spacing. Going to use that when I do mine...Thanks!

Great video. I like your attention to detail. That is going to be one beautiful Sting Ray.

Fingers crossed!

Dick- you did a masterful job of fabricating the exhaust for your Corvette. I was wondering if you considered an X-pipe or an H-pipe in the system. I have a C5 with the LS1 and Chevy used an H-pipe supposedly to tune the exhaust drone out of the system. I’ve also heard that the crossover pipes equalize pressure between cylinder banks which improves performance. Just found your channel and I love it. You are a master craftsman and truly a soon all trades automotive.

Yes, I considered it but eventually decided it was more trouble than it was worth. Thanks for your comment.
