Do you have other sizes? I am looking for a 4" mandrel bend tube with 4" on one end and about 8" on the other. What would something like that cost?

You can have beads welded on, or get a bead roller

Ebay and Ebay, I was on there today and saw a few 4inch OD aluminum elbows for a great price. Link to 4 inch aluminum elbow.

There is also a bead roller for a great price too in the exhaust section. You'll find the elbow in the turbo section FWIW.
