Re: Where is a cheap source of mandrel bends?
These guys are pretty fair depending on the size. They have both short radius and standard radius bends http://shop.airflowonline.com/Mercha...tegory_Code=EE

Thanks a bunch John! That "2 1/4 dual exhaust" in your sig is your old exhaust right? Surely you wouldn't use 3.5" collectors with that <img border="0" title="" alt="[Smile]" src="gr_stretch.gif" />

I suggest that you go to a semi truck parts store. Look in the phone book, there are a few in your area.
I get the pieces at a local semi truck store, for $15 a bend. Good luck.
