Default Exhaust pipe source

Trying to piece together the remaining parts to build my downpipe but can't find a good source for aluminized steel exhaust pipe. Need about 5 feet of 3" and about 5 feet of 1.5" pipe. Found an ebay seller but he wants 20$ to ship a single piece of pipe that costs $15 so I'm attempting to find a more reasonable source with little luck.

Anyone have a good source for this stuff?

have you looked at www.onlinemetals.com ? I've ordered some aluminum bar from them before, but mainly because they're local to me. I think they have pipe too, but not sure if they have exactly what you want. they cut to order

I bought everything for the V8 exhaust -straights and bends - from Columbia River Mandrel Bends http://www.mandrel-bends.com/catalog/

Good prices and shipping.

That said, my local Advance Auto has straight sections of aluminized steel exhaust pipe in stock but I doubt they have 3".

When I built the header back exhaust on my pickup, I opened the yellow pages and called the local exhaust shop. They sold me the pipe by the foot and were nice enough to pop a couple slip-joints in there for me.

It was fun driving the FE bigblock Ford on the street with open headers

you'll have to shop around because different shops have wildly different prices on random things.

I bought my 2.5" aluminized from Jegs. They were the cheapest (with shipping) that I could find at the time.
