Mike, the reference I made to my exhaust
being made out SS pipe – was just that, railing tubing from R&B
Wagner.

As you can see it is 304SS and its worked
well for me in the pipe gauge thickness – but, is heavy.

I have been sorting out exhaust routing using PVC drain pipe
and have come up with a few different versions. I will need some sort of flex
joint between the manifold and the exhaust/muffler. May go with that or one of
the flex connector with the braided SS on the outside. Hoping not to switch
pipe size and keep it all uniform so if I do use one of those bell and
ball units looks like about 65$ for the basic 2 inch unit. I have a
pile of .045 thou SS pipe bends in 1&7/8 inch OD that were left overs
form pool hand rail manufacturing but have no idea what grade SS they are and
the OD on the exhaust ports on my manifold flange is closer to 2&1/8 they
so they wont work.

Yes, that sounds correct. Mine was 3 X the price because it
required a 3" inlet and a 2.5" outlet. Try to make it the same
size (inlet and outlet) and you'll $ave yourself a few bucks.
