Default Orlando Shops?

What good shops are in the Orlando area? I am putting on flow tech headers and a y-pipe with no cats, so a little welding will be involved.

Mr Muffler in Sanford knows F-bodies and his exhaust work is nice and clean, go with a custom fabbed y to get a really good merge.....save some $$$$ and put the headers in yourself, or round up a bunch of guys from here and we can help.
Also try Mike @ Norris Motorsports, good work, good guy, good tuner!

geeteego & Titanws6,

Thanks for the mentions as always. Good seeing you today also Ronnie.

malekmb,

Feel free to call me and we can discuss everything. I am trying to figure out where the welding issue comes in.

What happened to the car, did he switch it back to stock before he sold it to you? That sucks if he did, 500hp takes some serious modding beyond headers and an exhaust. It woulda been sweet to buy it with all the goodies.

I wonder if it was built back when I owned Next Level. There were a few 500 HP SS cars we did back then but I can not think of any of them that would have gone back to stock or close to it. Maybe it was forced induction previously? Who owned it before you? Not a big deal if you do not know or want to say. It should work out well for you and have fun.

Derek horsemier owned it. Ive known him forever from church, hes an honest guy. But yeah the car was sick nasty, and the piston rod went threw the oil pan and he got it rebuilt. It still has the springs from when he had the cam, it also has the under drive pulley(s), the air intake, and the quad tips. all the visual stuff is still there like the wheels. So the installation went very well, they also fixed some minor problems with the steering, for no extra charge. I am not knocking on any other shops, but i just trust them more becuase they did every thing to it, from before. Also i am not totally sure if it was 500 or so but is was way over 400.
