They bought too much steel and didn't know what to do with the rest.

Then why wouldn't you just put a u-bend? Hell just some kind of cone shaped cap would be simpler.

Some high-performance exhaust systems only work at a certain pressure and temperature. For a cash strapped business that cannot afford to mass cut pipe, bending it sometimes is more efficient and keeps the tube's overall length the same so a new exhaust system does not have to be calculated and manufactured. This is useful if the vehicle the engine is on is shortened or has something like a cargo or bomb compartment expanded.

anon made this up. if the goal is to keep the length the same, a U bend will suffice. that isnt a high performance exhaust either lol.

Ever worked on a mid 70s shitbox? Back when GM didn't give a shit? This is the sort of stunt they'd pull to meet newly imposed smog requirements.

Thats fake. You can't even bend a metal pipe like that without breaking it.

It's from the 19th century so they were probably still experimenting with different techniques. Sometimes the simplest solution isn't always the most obvious

it would make the machine more inefficient, so perhaps they're trying to bottleneck the thing intentionally

or maybe that was laying around and it just happened to fit

You can do. Just need a lot time and a very ductile metal.

pipe was too long, so the guy installing it just tied it in a knot to make it shorter.

i don't see how you can bend steel like that

maybe 2 or more welded sections
