stainless exhaust tube price
blakep82 - 13/1/09 at 12:16 AM

how much would i expect to pay for a few meters (3m for example) of 2.5" stainless tube? for an exhaust, and manifolds (inlet and exhaust, and some to make mistakes with)

from somewhere like metal supermarket for example? or where else might be cheaper?

though my inlet would actually be smaller than that... 1.7" i think

Hi Blake, i found these people more than helpful, they do all the mandrel bends, pipe, and collectors etc. Well worth looking at their web site. Cheers Ray
