Wanted: 3" ID cast Al elbow

Most cast Al elbows are 3" OD, I need one that is 3" ID to put between the 75mm TB and intake plenum... lemme know if you know somewhere that sells them.

Closest thing I could find that wasn't smaller than 3"ID, but a bit pricey @ $56.54.

Ouch, a little pricey is right... was looking for a little thicker tho.

There are 3.5" aluminum (not cast) elbows on ebay:

Not exactly what your looking for but they may work.

Otherwise is there something you could salvage for that part, maybe the outlet on a big intercooler, or some type of truck intake? Might be a less expensive route.

Here's another one from Mcmaster-Carr that's a little bit heavier (sched. 40 instead of 10)
