    Making a manifold

    Anyone know where i can get the mandrel bent tubing needed to make up an exhaust manifold. The bends needs to be tight as i have little room to work with.

    The only place i have found so far is Demon Tweeks but there manifold set is mild steel and cost £300 without the flanges.

    Cheers

    Are you planning to make the manifold yopurself?
    Maybe try Powerspeed nr Ashford in Kent. They made my exhaust and downpipe (really happy too) but they do have mandrel bending equipment so maybe would supply only.

    Hope this may help?

        For really tight bends in big pipe sizes, it's easier to get some half donut sections spun and use two segments welded side-by-side ...that's how we made the tightest bends for a lot of things.

        I think the company was called CFM metal spinning or something like that, will see if I can check this out.

                Post has been dead for awhile, but you can try 034 motorsports. I figure its $440 USD for piping and flanges.
