auxilary Posted May 10, 2004 Share Posted May 10, 2004 Well, to make a long lasting manifold for teh wankel, I need to use stainless steel (1400*F at exhaust ports) tubing, because regular steel won't last too long. I need about 2 feet of straight stainless 3" OD pipe, a 3" to 2" reducer, 3" 90* bend, and 2 very close/small radius 2" OD 90* bends. I suppose a 3" stainless steel tube is also in order, for the downpipe Any idea what a good/cheap place would be to acquire those? thanks, -alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z-TARD Posted May 11, 2004 Share Posted May 11, 2004 This is the place where I got my exhaust tubing and bends. High quality stuff. http://stores.ebay.com/vertexnow Hope this helps, Mike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

auxilary Posted May 11, 2004 Author Share Posted May 11, 2004 John, do they have a website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxilary Posted May 12, 2004 Author Share Posted May 12, 2004 found it, http://www.spdexhaust.com Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drax240z Posted May 12, 2004 Share Posted May 12, 2004 I'm happy with Burns Stainless (http://www.burnsstainless.com) but they are pricy. The pieces are REALLY nice though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
auxilary Posted May 13, 2004 Author Share Posted May 13, 2004 I ordered from the ebay shop z-tard linked up above. They had everything I needed (6 pieces) and it cost me 85 shipped, which is a lot cheaper than burnsstainless and spdexhaust. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest 305240 Posted May 15, 2004 Share Posted May 15, 2004 I was just looking at my latest JC Whitney catalog and saw what you were looking for. I'm assuming the prices are pretty good, as we used to say "If you can get it for almost JCWhitney prices, get it" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All 304 SS. Cost me 75 bucks + shipping Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest unknownroadster Posted November 15, 2004 Share Posted November 15, 2004 May also try Reid Washbon. We use to use BRNS, but they're way exspensive, then we found RW, alot cheaper than Burns and they have stuff that BURNS doesnt, like a tighter radius in 1"3/4 for header material. Thats for the the bends, now burns collectors are flawless!!!! For staright tubing might try TUBE SERVICE, they have a warehouse up north somewhere, it'll be better to pick it up from theyre warehouse cause they charge a left arm for shipping.
