My primary runners are 0.049 6063 T832 Drawn alum 1 .25" in diameter. My
secondary runners are of the same tubing but 1.5" in diameter. Below is
best source for this Drawn aluminum tubing that I found.
http://www.texastowers.com/aluminum_.htm
In my case I wanted them adjustable by having the top half made of larger
tubing - in fact I got the special aluminum tubing used for telescoping
antenna elements so the bottom and top would slide together smoothly. If
you don't plan to do that then 6061 T6 will work just fine.
I cut off the heavy cast aluminum tubing of an 86 N/A upper manifold, milled
a shallow recess around the air hole, set the thin lightweight tubing down
in it and brazed it with HTS-2000 (the only aluminum brazing rod I've ever
had any success with). You could possibly tig weld it - but I had somebody
try with a Mig welder and the thin tube and heavy casting (manifold), just
didn't come out well.
