Stainless Stack ??

The D is finnaly near completion and am in need of the stacks. As you know the D (deere) has cast elbows that the stack ataches to. They take a 4 inch stack and need to be about 38" high. Now i need opinions on how they can be atached to the elbow. A friend makes stainless milk tankers and told us to heat the stack then slip it on and cool it down. We attempted with a piece we had laying around and it sorta worked but sample piece was to thick.
Do you think the 1 1/2" of elbow will be tall enough to support a 4X38" stack? Or do you have a better method? Also where would be a reasonable place to purchase stack?

Thanks much Mitch
 
Your friend should have a chart of SS thinwall sanitary tubing but if you can get it I would use 304 instead of 316L 3A polish. SS 309 is for high temperatures but I don"t think you"ll reach those kinda temps with the D. The chart should have ID and OD dimensions and weight per foot thinwall is very light I don't have my chart it's at work or I could tell you or you can google it on the web. The weight difference between the 3 grades would hardly be noticeable.
 
Any finish in perticular you looking for?
