Default Who makes mandrel bent pipes?

Hey Guys
I need a little help. Does anyone know who makes a set of mandrel bent pipes for a '72 small block car that can bolt up to a set of headers? The new 383 will be ready in a few weeks and I would like to take care of this prior to installing the new engine.
Thanks
Todd

Stainlessworks make mandrel pipes...not sure if they make system for the C3...they do make headers and they do make custom mandrel bends to order...and I found them to be extremely helpful.

Todd,
Check out my post from yesterday. I have emailed the vendor to find out if they have what you are looking for. When I hear back I will give you a shout.
