  • Found source of my exhaust leak....

    I let it go little too long. It finally opened up, so I went under and saw this. I did not think it would be this. Thinking loose bolts, but fuck no. My fault for letting it go too long. So I took peek on other side, and that crack goes around as well, but it goes downward and comes back up. I know I scraped a few times in the past, but can't remember ever hitting so bad that it would cause this. SUMBIATCH!!!!

    And it's a PAIN in the ass to get driver side header out. I feel like putting her to sleep for a couple years while I continue to save for full rebuild.

    Don't let it sit. Keep it on the road. Too many car get parked with the best intentions only to gather dust indefinitely and deteriorate.

        I'm rarely happy with the welds that come on headers and frequently redo them prior to installing the headers on the car. That doesn't look like it's your fault, it just looks like a piss poor weld from the manufacturer. On the bright side it could be a whole lot worse, I recently helped a board member work on their car when they thought they had an extremely bad exhaust leak and instead it was a head gasket hanging halfway out from between the block and the head.

              Been putting my shop on hold for like awhile. Busy with working on rooms and doing some land regrading/leveling, new driveway. Got tired of the water around house, so tearing shit outside for that now. New dog is away for training, so trying to knock this shit out before I get him back and before I go back to driving to office for work.
