Message: [QUOTE="Krause, post: 677176, member: 331"] The flanges will be welded first to the pipes, so that they are sealed to the up-pipes themselves, then bolted in place and welded to the collector to seal it to the collector and make it all one piece. Then bolts removed and holes plugged where the bolts were to prevent any gas escaping around the threads. Yes, making a more robust flange/gaskets are probly a much more practical way to go about this, especially considering the cast welding. I was just horny about having it all welded and one piece, no more gaskets to worry about etc etc. But I know they can be made to be just as effective (maybe even more :doh:)with a gasket. [/QUOTE]
