I spent the weekend cutting and welding heat exchangers for some headers I got from Bleyseng. I guess these are Eurorace that Zois had, then, Brad then, Geoff and now me. Anyway they are stainless and I used 304 stainless for the jackets.
Hope this works cause I barely left the garage and I used up the last few car tokens I had with the wife. Dave Attached image(s)

Hope it works! You didn't make the collectors over any weld joints did you? That's a no-no, for aircraft and Porsches.
One thing you could have done was to make the collectors out of mild steel. This is what the factory did with all of the early heat exchangers. The exhaust pipes were made of stainless (a low grade), and the collectors from mild steel. This way the collectors would wear out before the pipes.
