Peter Dawe has 3-2-1 bowl of spaghetti headers made, I don't think he does it in house, maybe if you get in touch with him, he could hook you up with someone.

Hey Fred,
Have you tried Brian ((rarlyl8) ? He does quite a few custom exhaust systems.

Not certain if they do one-offs, but Brian and Rarelyl8 do great work, are accommodating and have incredible customer service. I’d drop them a line.

fabrication
I will contact Rarly as well.Thanks for the input.I contacted a local Nascar fab shop here in NC today and offered them a gutted 911 engine for a jig but they are smoking the gold leaf bud from never neverland.Ciao

Steve Timmons (Instant-G) has a fabricator that made headers to my specifications - I’m very happy with the results

Glad to help if we can, already have several 911 mule engines to use and 911 header fixtures. Shoot me an email and we'll see what can be done.

Fred, I used these guys to build me an exhaust for my 912E, (when no one else wanted to go near the project.)

I've seen Fred's headers many times. The design has a few top secret tricks... Very pretty piece of kit. Fred's design makes more power than anyother header out there...
I heard the set he has on his rule changing, moly tube space frame, twin plug, slide valve injected SS 2.8L 914-6 race car... Sound is awsome! And over 375 HP at the crank at 9,300 RPM. Exhaust scavenging plays a big part in this high output from a SS 2.8L... Last edited by archnraft; 03-07-2019 at 09:14 AM.. Reason: Wrong RPM 9,300 rather than 10,000 |

+1 for S Car Go.
The header fabricator there is legendary. I used a set of his parts for quite a while, and a great friend had some made not too long ago. That fabricactor is, the last time I checked, the tech editor of Excellence. Another other "old school" fabricator I know of is Pete Weber at Quiet Horsepower. Not far from where I live. Also legendary. Both of these individuals are top notch as is their work.

Having built a few sets myself, If you are starting from scratch, new engine and car, the curve is steep. Over pricing is their way of saying "go away".

exhaust scavenging
I see a lot a of great builds on here with being finished off with a lackluster because that is what was available to them.This sytem will add 15-20 bolt on HP and breathe better all the way up.No flat spots at 3-4,000 rpm.Coming soon with heat as an option.Fred

I am interested. I have a feeling Brian may have something in the works, too?
