Default Other place for oval mandrel tubing?

http://www.burnsstainless.com/....html
kind a overpriced...?

is there a drawback of using oval as exhaust tubing? it would look pretty cool and i can probably make a aerodynamic panel underneat my car if i use oval tubing, that should clear half an inch if not 1" of space. (for catback of course lol not the header)

just an idea. what do you welder think?

DR GAS used to sell ovalized tubing. Not sure if they are still around. You might also check Stahl Headers.

They don't sell oval, but way cheaper than burns on tubing,etc.
Oval is really expensive, and requires huge area to equal round, and a transition from round.
