Can't find a 5in x 18in Port

[Ramrod 10+ year member]

I need a 5in Port and I'm having a hard time even finding 5in PVC... I would like to have clear pipe, but will settle for anything as I can just paint it if need be. Would be even better if I can get the horned ends..

Thanks in advance

Psychoport's aren't happening for awhile I think. Could just make a slot port with .75" or 1" plexi

Looked them up, They are metal...Can that change the sound?

No. I'm saying psychoport's aren't being made for like 6 months. No the metal is fine. I was talking about ordering 1" thick plexiglass sheets and making a slot port of you wanted clear.

Thanks 18in would be $58.. not to bad really.Pushing it thou... but then shipping rapes you at $15... Now it's costing almost $80 for just 18in..

I've got a ton of 6" PVC sitting in my garage. It wasn't cheap, but I could maybe sell some. Shipping would be the biggest cost.

Edit: Never mind, wouldn't be worth it for either of us.

Try Lowes, that's where I bought mine.

Thank you... Nice find... Not exactly 5in, but 4.75 and 5.75... Very close... hopefully they will work.

Quick question and last one about this link... Having the OD @ 5in and in the ID @ 4.75in... That would be a 1/16th wall thickness.. Is that going to work? Sounds thin......

what did you end up getting?

I'm on the same boat now but i need 28" of 5" pipe

 

[Ramrod 10+ year member]

Haven't gotten it yet. Just going to go the cheapest route. I would like clear, but that's just too expensive.

Just get some of that clear paint from JC Whitney... I think it's good for an extra 5hp or maybe 5 db ... idr .....

I have metal flares and could probably fabricate you something if you needed

Would you be able to make a 5x28" cylinder?
