Default Upper Radiator Tube

I am looking for input or source for the upper tube for an FE setup - the 90degree tube that goes in the upper line.

My info says it is 1 3/4" dia. I was going to order a bend from Summit but then I saw a post, warning about electrolysis in the system.

Summit has aluminized stl tubing and stainless tubing, in 90 bends. I can't find a source of prebent aluminum.

Does anyone have any suggestions? Tried Finishline and CobraRestorers but neither of them had one listed

????

Paul

Contact Burns Stainless in Southern California. They have mandral bends in Aluminum and Stainless. Good service. I have used them several times.
