Default intake material source for GT42R?

does anyone know where you can get lightweight polished aluminum 5" mandrel bends? We're trying to get an intake made for a 42R application but all of our mandrel bend sources only sell to 4". I really dont want to use steel mandrels for an intake bc 1)it will not look the same as the rest of the system and we're **** like that and 2)it will be heavy as hell.

This might be a ghetto question but has anyone put a 4->5 adaptor on the comp inlet on the 42R and ran a 4" intake setup? Would this reduction in intake diameter compromise hp at all? Thanks

can you all PM me a price on a 45 degree bend in 5", the radius, and whether or not its polished or raw aluminum. I assume this is 16ga as well?

lastly, PM a price on a foot of 5" alum straight and again if its raw or polished. wall thickness on the straight section too please. thanks for your time
