Default Looking for header builder in Nor Cal area anyone?

Anyone have experience with a good shop to build a set of LS3 swap headers? I have motor/trans mocked up in the car and want a nice set of stainless Tri-y headers built. I can haul car to location. Need someone who knows how to build merge type collectors....thanks for your feedback.

We do it all the time, but might be a little far away. Just be prepared that kinda work is very time consuming. Be sure no one make what you need first. You will be money ahead.

I had a guy named Boyd Ferry build me some stepped headers for my FFCobra. nicest set I've ever seen. He is next door to Sanderson headers in South SF about two doors down from Brizio. It's been years, but I'm sure Sanderson has his digits.

For more than 30 years the only thing this guy has done in life is build headers.

Peter Weber is a master fabricator. We have used him before and he doesn't disappoint. He's near you to boot.

Thanks that may be the guy my buddy Bob Wirth told me about, since he is too busy with an Australian Pro Stock engine program right now.

If you decide to go down south to Ironworks I can attest their work is phenomenal! They did my entire system. If not there is a guy east of Sacramento in Loomis called BigHead Motorsports. Alex Guiterez. He does awesome work and great to deal with as well.

Check out this thread for some of his work.
