You might try "Coatings-Protective" in your Yellow Pages. That's how I found the shop I used. Do make sure they have some automotive experience. Some bead blast the parts before coating and things like mufflers or anything else with thin walls (like intake runners) are easily damaged.

If only you knew where I was! There isn't even a dyno within a 120 miles much less a flow bench. People down here don't need all that fancy stuff!

HELP
