Building Headers on Street Outlaws Shane's NEW Blackbird Vega

What happens here

Shane demonstrates the precise pipe notching process using the modified DeWalt bandsaw. He securely holds a section of exhaust tubing against the custom metal table and slowly feeds it into the running bandsaw blade. The foot pedal allows him to control the power and ensure a smooth, clean cut without having to manage a trigger, showcasing the effectiveness of the DIY setup for achieving high-quality pipe notches crucial for header fitment.

Goal: Precisely cut header tubing for optimal fitment

  • DeWalt Portable Bandsaw — Cutting and notching header tubing
  • Foot Pedal — Activating the bandsaw

hopefully you don't have wide hips is that how you notch the tube this thing you pulled off here and going to tack at all just light it back in make sure it still fits that's what I've been working for a little bit today making some progress on the passenger side header I got one more primary to go and so far it's uh it's mirroring the driver side pretty well there's no really rhyme reason to that I say there's no rhyme or
