Want feed back please?
I have been thinking about this for some time now.
I have the use of a mandrel bending machine that will bend up to 4" aluminum pipe. I can buy the aluminum pipe for about $8.00 -$10.00 for 10' sections. What do all of you think of making my own exhaust out of aluminum. PRO'S and CON'S. I know I would either have to clamp all the joints are have them welded, that is one thing I would have to find out if I could get it welded. I work with welders that can weld aluminum, it's just the matter of getting it done under the truck. I guess what I really want to know would the aluminum be worth the trouble to do it. Any and all suggestions are welcome.
