Looking for some aluminum mandrel bent elbow

I am trying to locate for a little project that I am doing and I need to get some tube. I was just wondering if anyone had any idea on where I can find some.

I'm pretty sure JC Whitney has it. It's been a while since I looked.

Oh yea 4" OD I forgot to mention that. And I need a 90. And I need to find a place that sells silcone connectors for it.

Holy shieza!! Intake I'm guessing??? You don't need a 4" OD pipe for that... 3" should work fine. Try a local welding shop or muffler shop.

Well my throttle body is quite big so the 4" is closer to the size of it. The change for the connetors would be too out of hand If I used a 3" pipe.

Not aluminum but galvanized conduit might work and you could buy a sweep 90 at an electrical supply. Ask any electricians you might know if their co. has a bender for 4 inch conduit. Anything else I can think of will be ex-pen-sive!
