Thought of a cool idea last night
Does anyone have a tubeing bender that will bend 3/4 or 1 inch tubeing or have access to one? I am going to put dual exhaust on my old tracter.
Neighbors are gonna love this.

on small engines....3/4" 0r 1" in black pipe will thread into the engine where the exhaust port is...then run 45s and 90 or whatever u need to make it out the back....then go to autozone and get some chrome tips....(ive done this before...sounds bad ass)

You can bend it in a vise withouth kinking it. You just need to pack the tube with wet sand and cap both ends before you bend it. thats how one kid had to do it at school when he was building his bike frame (thin wall Chromemoly) Exhaust shops use this method too sometimes.

u have to change the pulley on the rear to like about a 5 in pulley...that bitch will fly, the only thing u have to rig up is some sort of tensioner and get a shorter belt, me and my buddy brian did this was back and the tractor would pull the front wheels up when u jammed it into first
