A ghetto trick I used was to get JB weld (clay stick type) and roll some skinny snakes out of it. Then put it on your pipe ends and you have a home made bead roll.

In the past i have used these they work pretty damn good ..the only bitch about it is since they dont make 90s or 45s in the hump hose. so i had to use all aluminum ones and weld them on. its a lot of work but it deffenately worked for me

We changed the couplers and clamps. No problems after that. And this car took out cars with four more cylinders and two power adders
