Supplies? hey guys
i was wondering where you guys get your 90*, 180* bends from to make your own headers? Just from summit? or is there someplace cheaper? (steel)
also, what about intercooler piping? Whats the avg diameter that is used, and where do you get that from?
Do you guys use steel or is that too heavy? Aluminum? but thats a PITA to weld isn't it?
lookin for some options and advise, thanks guys!

We stock mandrel bends that can be used for headers. Price depends on material (mild steel or stainless).
For Intercooler piping, use the biggest you can fit! On most f-bodys, 3" is perfect. We run a 3" mandrel bent pipe for our front mount intercooler kit.
Steel isnt really heavy, just depends on the gauge of the steel.
