Need to make a pipe to connect my manifold to my can. Needs about a 10 to 20 degree bend in 1.5mm 2" stainless.

Oxy acetylene with a big carburising flame and heat it till its cherry red, then bend it.

Or take it to an exhaust specialist and get it bent properly.

Buy a 2" swept elbow from a dairy pipe supplier and cut out what you need
