This week I'm in the garage fabricating a stainless steel exhaust for my 1978 Datsun 280z. I'm going to take you through the entire process from start to finish from raw materials to tacked up exhaust. This project is pretty involved and requires a lot of materials which I go over first, then step by step we go through the fabrication process.

Materials: To execute this process you'll need to buy some raw stainless steel, I like to get mine from JMD tubes, and I got several different diameters, mandrel bends, bellows, and V-bands. My main center tube is 2.5 inch in diameter, and the rear section is 2.25 inch diameter, with 2.75 inch diameter tips. The resonators are 12 inches long and 3.5 inches in outer diameter with a 2.25 inch core. Vbands are 2.5 inch and so is the bellow.

Tools: You're going to need a lot of tools for this project, a tig welder, I use the Primeweld 225x, a larger argon tank, a good welding mask, I use a Sentinel A50, a band saw, I use a Grizzly vertical and horizontal band saw, as well as a belt sander, then some obvious ones like car jacks and jackstands.

Fabricating is hard, but it's a rewarding process when you get it right, watch the video to learn some of the tips and tricks I learned along the way.
