Are there ANY good muffler shops in Ft Worth?? I am looking for a good muffler shop that will actually do mandrel bends for a good price, or even piece together a system with mandrel bent piping. I had my truck (03 Chevy) done at a local shop and they did a real hack-job (crush-bends, crooked pipes, etc). Not mentioning any names... Within the next month or so, I want to get it all re-done correctly.
As for now, I'm mainly concerned about getting the mufflers swapped out on my woman's 2011 SS. The exhaust actually looks good for stock, but I just want to get rid of the big *** goofy stock mufflers, lol. Maybe even get some high-flow cats installed. It seems that all the good muffler shops that used to be around have closed down or their work has gone to crap. It's been awhile, so let me know!
I'm willing to trade out my services too. Gears, T56 work, clutches, etc.

Thanks, but I found a guy who I've known for quite awhile who does this....70 miles away but well worth it. I'll post pics when its done. The level of work that I'm looking for is simply not offered by any local muffler shops. There are no places that I know of that actually keep mandrel bent pipe in stock and no shops have a mandrel bender. I know that I don't really "need" it done like this, but it's what I want.
Ray is definitely one of the best welders that I've ever known, and I could probably get him to do it. But he doesn't have much time anymore since he's working a full-time job now. So I'm not going to bother him with it. Thanks again!
