Velocity stacks

[Jiml0001]

Found a great replacement for velocity stacks. Google “bootlace ferrules” and you can get a box with an assortment of sizes.  I paid $11 for this assortment with 200 pieces in it. They are thin walled and beautifully chrome plated brass tubes.  They really look fantastic and I think they look better than most of the aftermarket turned stacks or exhaust tips for a tiny fraction of the price

Now THAT is a great find. I just made some with a flaring tool and cutoff on a lathe. A little time consuming to get uniform. Thanks for sharing.

i use marine electrical connectors. they have a plastic sheath but once you strip it away your left with nice stacks, and being marine they are stainless steel so polish up nice with a little thinners

Look at wire ferrules, there are some that look exactly like velocity stacks. That's what some of the aftermarket vendors are using.

Bootlace ferrules are wire ferrules.  Just another term for the same thing.

Where did you order them from?

 

  Thanks Bob.

get them from electrical supply wharehouses

I am an industrial electrician and use hundreds of them when I build a control panel. The ones I use have an insulated end but if you carefully cut that off you have what is shown in the OP pix

You can get them uninsulated as shown as well

I got these on ebay.  600 total in 7 different sizes for $5.95 plus shipping
