I bought my 3" and 4" aluminum mandrel bends for my supercharger intake and discharge from Woolf Aircraft

Warning in advance, it's not inexpensive and you'll need a good welder (equipment and guy running it) not to blow through it as it's thin wall stuff, especially at the OD of the bend where the material has stretched.
