Default Where to get Jet-hot header installed in DFW?

I bought some Jet-Hot LT's for my 96 Z28 and took them to Speedtek in Ft. Worth to get them installed. They put on the drivers side and said the collector is too close to the floorboard and they can't do it. So now I have to pay to have my stock **** put back on. I have read that the jet-hot's do ride close to the bottom, but they do fit. WTF? Does anyone in the Dallas area know where I can find a shop that will do what it takes to get these on? Grind down the lip on the cross-member, bend some pipes a little, replace the motor mounts!?! PLEASE HELP

Sam88GTA works on LT1 cars. The coater ive always used is in Arlington. Performance Coating Specialties. Look them up. Hes meticulous with his coatings.

I just called Xtreme Horsepower in Ft. Worth. They said they do LT1's all the time. Anyone have experience with these guys? They quoted me $350 for the install. Not too bad.
