Title: 1 1/4 inch bends for exhaust Post by: dobber on April 24, 2012, 02:34:23 PM looking for a few 90 degree bends to adapt a new reliant down pipe. hellish expensive on e bay. can the pipe be bent or is it too thin. also wanted to lathe a straight bit to cut in to bits to fit as a sleeve internally to keep it strong or will that effect flow. any help appreciated.

I just cut a straight length of the same tube, slit it down it's length & pinch it up in a vice until it slips inside the exhaust to form a sleeve, then butt weld the pipe sections together. http://www.ojzengineering.co.uk/product.php?product=3 Title: Re: 1 1/4 inch bends for exhaust Post by: hunter on April 24, 2012, 09:40:11 PM This guy is quite cheap,But his smallest seams to be 1.1/2"
