I recently picked up a 1921 Elto Rudder Twin. Does anyone know where I can find the copper water exhaust tubing? One side is fine, but the other side is missing about 4 inches from where it comes out of the head.
Not that long ago you could go to any hardware
store and they could cut you off a piece of
what ever size you needed from the rolls in
the back. Still might worth a try if you still
have an old family hardware store nearby.
I have been buying what I need an Home Depot.
They have a few sizes in pre cut length. You
may have to by 10′ for just 4″. You might check
some of the other home centers to see what
they might have .And then there is the internet.

The piece that is missing has broken off
likely from vibration. It was originally one
piece like your other (good) side. You can
search for a replacement but as this was a
common problem it may take some time to
find one. Another option would be to get
some tubing and make the part that it missing.
You could make the joint behind the exhaust
manifold where it wouldn’t be so obvious.
