looks like square tubing and the bend looks allitle sharp hard to tell from picks pics but it almost looks like the tube is kinked at the bend a smooth bend will be stronger and wile your doing it you should get the correct tubing and the right radius so it will last their is info on hear about bending the tubing and it works also a place to get the tubing
no wing no prayer
All my concerns radius of bend to tight looks stretched also square corner tube is where cracks start roosty has the right tubing. Stoffers has some side shots that shows how tight you want the tube in relation to the engine bobs right mate built it once build it right

It is square tubing and why is this weaker than round corner tubing just curiouse i was told it is no weaker i would like to know it is t6??? It is not elded yet so i can change it thats why i posted pics up and the bend fits the motor and the pipe but i agree it does look steep... who has prices on the round corner tubing? thanks for the input
look at the stickey in the a/f only intro whear it says tubing avilable roosty is a good dude he will hook u up with the right stuff i matched the radious of the tubes i cut out and it worked perfect or if u dont have the stuff to bend it correctly buy some from p stoffers also in the intro i have also bought from him nother good dude
no wing no prayer
if u use the sharch and type in juddy you get a pic of the bender in his build thread i made one like his workd sweet but its time and a litte money so stoffers has the stuff if you dont want to build the stuff his kits are plug and play and sweeet but i liked learning the bending deal accept u may want a little extra tube i broke one tring to go to fast
no wing no prayer
