No doubt... Same time, found a couple good sites where pre-fabbed SS bends and 4-1 couplers are available... Also have megaphones....

Spendy crap... Also looking into Titanium piping....

First thing first, build a template using carbon steel then worry about the other alloy's.... Hell of a lot cheaper...

Just researching for the time being...

some car header manufacturers sell kits which are basically flex pipe that you bend into shape and fill with expanding foam,once it drys you send it to them to copy off of.

buy yourself a 1/2" emt bender and about a 100' of conduit and start practicing differant shapes till ya find what ya like,then take it to your local stockcar builder with a bunch of mild steel tubing to transfer your dimensions on to ya cheap bass-turd! :laugh: make sure to lay out your conduit to the center of your existing pipes to aloow for differance in diameter between the 2. B) remember to allow 5" for takeup on your bends for a 90 on 1/2" emt,6" for 3/4" emt or 8" for 1" emt depending on what ya buy.for 1" pipe ya might want to have mama help your skinny ass bend it! :woohoo:

you need one of these to get those long radius bends

,which has to be better flowing than two 90 deg.close bends.plus the long radius bend will always look more vintage,or so i think anyways :laugh: .
