Title: Custom headers
Post by: 72vet on March 03, 2014, 08:04:43 PM

Hi gang,

Anyone out there recommend an exhaust place that they have used for header fabrication on their Vette.
Have been doing the ring around to a few places and most are more interested in the bolt on and off systems to the family car. :barfaway:

Just have a chat with Greg, he can make you up a set of headers and have them ceramic coated if you want.

Did an excellent job on my 77, Priscilla as she's known LOL,  Often get asked who did the work.  No complaints from me at all

Liverpool exhaust are Ok too, you just got to get the right bloke there to do the work.  i.e.. be in the know. :whistle:  Will be getting my pipes for the Dodge done there but only because of the delay with Chris at Best Mufflers.

Cheers Camo, I'll see what can be sorted out, several months away so timing could be good for Best mufflers

Chris did the exhaust system for my 69 vette some time ago from midway back, and his work was superior. Had patience and took his time to get all clearances correct.
