Default 3" elbow

Hey does anyone know where to find a 3" elbow like this, or something similar. I need a really tight radius for my down pipe

:EDIT: it can be anything except aluminum

For that tight of a radius you'll need a donut and cut the piece you want.

sorry, don't mean to turn this into a for sale post, but.....

I got a 3" donut that I didn't end up using.

Its the tightest radius 3" bend you can find. I got it from roadraceengineering.com

I can sell it to you if you like.

Check through these bends and see if there's something you can use. They have stainless steel and aluminum:

you want tight bends, go buy a piece of straight 3" and cut a bunch of "triangles"



you'll be surprissed at how tight you can make them...
