Thats a 305? in your car?
Where I cut my air tubes off it looks like crap...cause there was so much weld built up around the tubes...I just cut the tube and tried to grind the weld that I put on.......so theres a build up of weld......Im hopeing that when I get the headers coated....it will hide some of it and it wont look that bad...

hehe yeah, that's the 355 
What I did was just take a little hacksaw and cut those tubes off. Then I just welded up the open end and ground the tube inside so it didn't stick out. Didn't spend a lot of time to make it pretty cause I have plans of swapping out those headers some day.
Here's a couple more pics
grinding the tube flush inside...
