<div dir="auto">I make my own front pipes for 100's because the cheapo repos are so terrible. 
<div dir="auto">I use mild steel for the pipes, which I actually had mandrel bent in New Zealand because no one in Canada seemed to be able to bend them to the correct radius but, and pretty soon I'll get to the point of this email, I weld the stainless flex

Just thought I’d bring you up to date on my quest for a leak free exhaust.<br>
The new downpipes arrive today, and I did a test on them before going to the trouble of putting them on the car.<br>
Well…Bell exhaust systems need new welders, because the two pipes both leak at the welds AND through the flex pipe!
<br>
I’m trying to find someone local to fix them, but most muffler shops say they can't weld stainless.<br>
If anyone knows someone in the Toronto area who can do this work, please let me know.<br>
<br>
Thanks,<br>
