I know that Stainless Works sells SS pipe and bends, but I couldn't find any mild steel exhaust tubing (hence the name SW). I don't have a TIG at the moment, but I want to be able to finish my exhaust and make sure it's working all right. Eventually I'll build a turbo setup and redo the exhaust, so I don't feel like dropping the $ for a SS system right now, especially if I don't have the equipment to weld it. Who sells MS bends, donuts, flanges and the like?

They have alot more stuff, so if you see something that is not in the online store give them a call.

Mild steel donuts can be bought here. Be aware that availability can sometimes be a problem with mild and SS donuts and the last time I ordered some SS donuts they were back ordered for a couple weeks. If they have them in stock theyll ship right away but if not you may have to wait a little while.

Jegs.com summitracing.com both sell mandrel mild steel bends but no donuts.

http://www.roadraceengineering.com/mandrelbends.htm sells mild steel mandrel bends fairly cheap.

I have heard that too, but I thought you had to change the gas to 90/10 or 100 instead of 75/25.

Bringing this back from the dead, as I'm almost ready to order... why are most of these guys selling aluminized steel tubing? Is it still MIG weldable like mild steel?
