>From an earlier note : "Hi,
I just wanted to point out that many of the Yanmar exhaust parts are available at much more reasonable price. For example, the common mixing elbow (124070-13520 Mixing Elbow) which Bob pointed out lists for $270, can be purchased much cheaper from several vendors. I purchased one recently for $69.95 from MMI Seattle.

My old black pipe version decided to rust apart yesterday. I have it patched for a while, but that is going to be a short term solution. Before I build a new black pipe version, I would like to check out a 'real' one.
