What happens here

To address clearance issues and create a custom exhaust, the host uses an innovative method for exhaust system fabrication. He first takes precise measurements from the suspended car's undercarriage, noting the location of the cross member, tire clearance, and where the exhaust will exit the bumper. These measurements are then meticulously transferred to the garage floor. Using these floor markings, he lays out pre-bent exhaust tubing and custom 'boom tubes' (large diameter resonators) to form the desired X-pipe configuration. The components are tack-welded together to create the custom exhaust system, allowing for precise fitment and angle adjustments before final installation under the car.

Goal: Fabricate a custom X-pipe exhaust system with boom tubes for enhanced sound and clearance.

Tools and materials

Boom Tubes — Custom resonators for a specific exhaust sound profile
Grinding Tool — Preparing metal surfaces for welding and smoothing welds (implied)
Marker — Marking layout points on the garage floor
Measuring Tape — Taking precise measurements from the car's undercarriage and transferring them to the floor
Pre-bent Exhaust Tubing — Forming the primary structure of the custom X-pipe exhaust
Welder — Tack-welding and potentially final welding of exhaust components

in there so i've been doing all kinds of stuff under here one changing the pinion yoke over to a 1350 put the new drive shaft in all that fun stuff tank is completely out um got all the thingies pulled out of it because you saw me do that i forgot it's been so long since i filmed the clip i kind of forgot what i filmed when i didn't uh i spaced the cross member up a little bit and made things for that um on the other side of the wall and i'm dropping the pan to put new fluid in and i saw something that i thought you guys would think is neat this little pan donut magnet thing when i dropped the pan was over here you can see where it used to be i pushed it back before showing you but i was like why is it over there that's weird and then i remembered the trunk that this transmission came out of got freaking clapped hard from the side so we got hit hard enough to kick this magnet all the way over there like that's not really easy to move i think i think that's that's pretty impressive hopefully the rest of the inside of the transmission is okay too i guess we'll see so we're doing some errand running now figured i would uh bring the camera and show you guys a little bit um this place is called sri performance and it's basically like a freaking warehouse of old nascar parts so we're gonna go in there and get some um get some stuff let me know if you like this video format where it's kind of spaced out over a longer period of time and more things get done as opposed to just focusing a video on one specific thing so speak up in the comments let me know what you think let's head on in here and get some stuff this is a bunch of headers and radiators in here rear ends pit boxes pretty much everything i don't even know what that is it's just like it's pretty cool making some progress on this boomtube stuff here i couldn't stand messing with them under the car like trying to figure out where the x-pipe's supposed to be and how the angles would come out and it's just it's all heavy it's over my head it was just not working well so i thought there's got to be a better way to do this second thought check out this shirt i see titties stapleton autoworks.com they are live right now go get one we'll show you more of them at the end of the video but i just wanted to clear up because i'm wearing it now so i thought there's got to be a better way to do this i measured the stick out point on both sides using the tires for reference about where i want this to be and i measured…
