Ernest,
Not sure what you mean by "Welds not cleaned up"...........All I see on these "TIG" welds is
a slight discoloration at the edge of the weld bead caused by the arc heat.................The only
measurment for tube wall thickness I can get to is on the Wastgate extension and it measures
.065...............Sent question to the seller to see if the manifold tubes are same thickness.........
Happy Holidays,

Exactly as pictured? Those welds havent' been cleaned up. Wouldn't intergranular corrosion take hold there fairly quickly? How thick is the tube?
