Whatever gas you are using the welds look good.
In your pics you have some pretty good gap in the tubes. The recent exhaust work I have done I butted the tubes together. I found I was able to turn the heat up a bit and get better heat penetration without burn through. I figure this is okay since exhaust is not structural. What are your thoughts.
Kind of off topic, But I think I am going to build a second exhaust with a smaller muffler and build as straight a system as possible. Then I will take both exhaust to the dyno to test

also, I had to spend some time filling brain's burn through hole when he was learning to weld.

we beveled, "chamffered," the edges with the flat side of the chop saw.
or would chamffering be doing that to one pipe and having the other sit overtop?
