Some years back I went to a truck supply place and almost keeled over at the high prices for new tubing.

Then someone on here or the list told me to check a truck wrecking yard...which I did and came away with 3 long chunks with different bends and they included the clamps and the silicone connectors. Bonanza at $22.50!

I was just at our local truck supply place today to get the material for my new MAF pipe..bought a 4" mandrel bend 90 degree elbow for $24. It's an exhaust piece and mild steel, though. The aluminum stuff is higher.

I found this place when looking for my rubber 90s for my intercooler project...
they don't list 90 or 45 alum. bends but do have pipe pretty cheap.
