Anyone know or recommend someone to repair a couple of bent tubes on my headers as a result of that guy taking me out?
looks like all I need are some 1.6" straight pipe and someone that knows how to cut pipes to fit, and then weld nice.

Mark you can try Mirko Racing down in Morgan Hill, or you can send it to me and I can fix them for you.

I'd bet that Clint or John at Evil Genius could fix it....

You might not need to replace any tubing. Cut out the dented sections heat them to dull red, reform and weld back in. Care is needed during the reweld to keep from pulling the curf/root in and deforming the flange. I suspect the flange is a bit out of wack as is and bolting it to a thick plate during weld up would help.

I'd give Tony C. a call... if not him he may know someone. Or call Rich Walton at Jerry Woods Enterprises. Or Kevin Mitz at Rennwerks. A little further away in Newark is Pete Weber who makes racing exhausts. All of these places have done excellent work for me in the past.

I heard a body shop might be able to weld on a thingie and then heat the pipe up and use a slide hammer puller to fix this. Or we weld a section. Jerry woods Racing is quoting a couple of hours ,and that might be too much to spend to fix them as for a little more, I can buy a good used set.
