OlderThanMe Posted February 20, 2008 Author Share Posted February 20, 2008 I found a source for dirt cheap weld -el's. http://www.kingmetals.com/ About 60% cheaper than McMaster. A 90 degree 4" steel weld-el from them is $10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tony D Posted February 22, 2008 Share Posted February 22, 2008 Just about any commercial pipe and supply house will be cheaper than McMaster. In L.A. McJunkin/Republic Supply is a good source, as is Bell Pipe in Anaheim. McMaster is a nice catalog house and they got one of everything, but they also know they have a reputation of having it, and everyone uses them in a pinch, so MRO stuff gets a little pricey sometimes. They (McMaster) also have smokes plexiglass in almost exactly the same thickness as the Stock Side, 1/4 and Rear Hatch Glass on a 240Z...just an example of McMaster Diversity...You can get the same stuff at S&W Plastics in Riverside for about the same discount you noted, OTM.

frank280zx Posted March 6, 2008 Share Posted March 6, 2008 well lets show 'mine' somebody started it from an old trust header.. i took it apart made some adjustments and re welded it and made a collector and some bungs for the EGT and pressure gauge, now it is wrapped aswel. Anyhow what i say is; you can also use an (or two) NA header and start from there as you have most of the bends then. Just some food for the thoughts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
