Default my first ram horn

Finally got my *** in gear and got back to work

after not being successful making a collector with my cut off wheel i got a buddy to cut and weld it up for me.
$60 + materials was well worth my time.

welded/ported the inside and added a WG bung

is there a good order to weld in when making a ramhorn, when i made mine there were quite a
few spots that were pretty hard to get to.

you should cut off the runners after you finish tacking every thing together. weld then weld back to the flange/collector
so i read

since my runners are so spaced i figured it wasn't needed
