Dang, that's a nice looking pipe! Must have been fun doing all the welds. Unfortunately, I found out the software existed just about as I was wrapping up. The project started out as a experiment (throwing crap together whenever I had a few free minutes), but after the time it took to stitch it all up and run nicely I could have made a nicer pipe.
I'm thinking it could be fun to throw the cone templates in CAD and cut out a pipe in 20 minutes on the plasmacam . Will have to try for the next one. Heck, one 4X4 sheet of steel could probably make ten pipes.
I notice for the header section, the diameter increases slowly all the way from the start. Does this have any benefit as opposed to a constant diameter from the exhaust port to the first cone?
Also, did you roll the header out of sheet from lack of access to tube bending equipment, or the reason above?
Thanks.
