Default maf replacement pipe....

I know alot of you running sd were looking for a maf replacement pipe(one that wouldnt melt), well I know where you can look, go to a place that repairs rv's and check in a junk pile for parts, your bound to find a 3.5" peice of exhaust pipe you can use, give it a good clean up and paint it, sure you could spend 15-20 bucks on a new pipe, but free is nice once in a while, I was at a place today when I asked the guy just for the hell of it if he had a 3.5" exhaust pipe, he showed me the junk pile and wooo right there on the ground was the pipe, there was also some pistons from some of those deisel trucks that were about 6" round, man those things were stupid huge, ok well just givin some ideaws of where you can look
