I paid $2 CDN for my 90 and $5 CDN for my Tees, 1.5" schedule 40.

down here i had a hard time finding a supply store with them. they ran about 16 for the tee and 6 for the elbow, which is a buck or two more than mcmaster. for some reason one shop wanted 220$ for 2 els and 2 tees.

did you guys not smash the the ends of the tubes to match the oval ports? i'd be too lazy..

Since the ends of the pipe were too hard to smash to make them oval I tacked the pipe to the flange then I had to fill the inside of the flange (head side) with welds. I then ported the welds again to smooth the transition between the oval(flange) and the weld els(pipe).
