I don't think anybody here has $70k to invest in a mandrel bender...
You'll have to buy one somewhere.

Summit racing has a house brand mandrel bend that is very cheap and actually has a round crosssection unlike some other, more expensive brands *coughdynomaxcough*. its $16.95 from summit for a 2.5" J bend and you will get it fast.

Hey, I've got a good supply on the mandrel bent piping. I can get a wide array of piping. anything from 1" to 6" diameter. 12-16 gauge. 304 Stainless Steel or Aluminum (even Carbon Steel for some sizes). 90, 60, 45, and 30 degree bends and anything from 3" to 10" on center radius. You just need to let me know exactly what you are looking for and I could quote you. My e-mail is Zushi@hotmail.com Thanks.
