Default Headers installed around Ft. Wayne In. ???

I read from y'all headers installed in around 6 hrs. I would love to have help finding a shop around Ft. Wayne In. that doesn't want at least $1000.00 and says its a 10 hr. job. I'm disabled.

I live in Ft Wayne and know a few people/shops. Might even be able to do it myself depending on availability.

Assuming the car is a 2002. What headers do you want installed?

Fastbird, I recently moved up to Wabash, nice to meet ya. I'm looking to put Dynatech or Obx 1"3\4 headers on, or maybe something you know about. If your interested in doing a install let me know. Rick Baker 832-259-9536. I'm recovering from half my left removed due to bone infection. I'm retired but still healing with a cast on. No worries i just get around slower. Thanks

I can't really help you out with any shops off hand but I bought my very 1st Corvette in Fort Wayne, Indiana from a guy that owned a performance shop up there. Can't recall his name or anything but I always thought the shop was called Dynotech Performance or something like that. It was a 1995 triple black C4. Love the landscape up there. I really miss all the green as I'm from central U.S. also.

Rick, sorry I haven't gotten back to you yet. I was on my long weekend at work (Fri-Sun 12 hour shifts) and pretty much useless. I'll give you a buzz today and we can discuss possibly doing an install for you.
