That's nice! It looks like it was done by a machine.

Did you try to brass your intercooler pipe finally?

I've seen ppl use a vise grips with welded lumps and a valley ground on the other side, but this is freakin awsome. Next time I have some tubing, I'll give it a shot, except it will be way overbuilt. I want to do stainless next...

You'll want to grind the galvanization off the washers. Or be a real man, use fluxcore, and breath those fumes in deep.
