Like the title says. I've decided to sell my GMMG and go with a set of custom duals but I need someone, or a shop that can weld stainless steel. Anyone have a recommendation or idea? Thanks.

So you're looking to weld up stainless exhaust? If so they make stainless wire for MIG machines, just gotta run a 90/10 or 80/20 mix on the gas. Anyone who can weld with a MIG can use the stainless wire. Most custom exhaust shops should be able to handle that I would think. Just make sure they back-gas it.

If you don't mind a drive, I know of a really good place in Oregon City. My friend had his entire turbo setup made from scratch in stainless...its a twin turbo twin intercoolered big block dodge with a cross over dual quad EFI setup (In an old 50's rat rod truck). The piping looks like a work of art ![Happy](https://ls1tech.com/forums/images/smilies/LS1Tech/gr_stretch.gif)

If you're going with stainless, better to have it all tig purge welded. That's the way I went. Just make sure to find someone who will take the time to make sure that nothing shrinks or "pulls" during the welding process.
