1/2" Aluminum Tube/pipe needed (help)

Post by ZenkiS14 »

Ok, i need a 3/8" to 1/2" aluminum tube/pipe by friday morning for my FMIC kit.

All i need is a 12-18 inch section of it.

Does anyone have any of this laying around?

Are there any shops where i can get some in the next day or two?

This is the last part thats keeping me from putting my FMIC on, so if you can, please, help me out!

Thanks guys!

Here is what i am talking about: so you know what im doing with it.

The lil piece thats welded to the cold pipe that has the hose clamped to it.

Don't quote me on this or anything but I've been to hardware shops and seen steel, galvenized, copper, plastic, and I'm pretty sure alluminum tubing from the size of pinky and up. Only problem is you will have to bend it to the specs you need, my buddy just picked up a few 3 foot pieces the size of my thumb for certain pieces to his drag car like he cuts them down for spacers instead of using washers to make a cleaner look.

Most hardware stores will carry conduit, which isnt aluminum in the size i need. I havent found a hardware store yet that has it.
