Default Z06 Ti's mod

Does any know of anyone in San Antonio or Austin, Tx. that can weld Titanium ?

I'm looking for some one to do the bypass mod to some Z06 Ti mufflers I'm buying. And they'll need to know where I can buy some 1.5" x 5" Ti pipes as well.

I think the aircraft industry uses a lot of titanium. Good luck with it and post before and after videos

As you've notice it's really hard to find someone to do it. I couldn't find anyone here that did.

Try calling around to the machine shops in your area, That is what I did and found a few places that do and Reno is a small town.
