Do you guys know anyone around Cleveland / Sandusky Ohio that is capable of looking at headers, pressure testing, and inspecting them? Stainless Marine, 454s. I could probably do this myself as I have all the equipment (hydrotesting tanks / bore-scopes, etc), but honestly when it comes to these applications, I’m a rookie. If I could pay someone to do it right the first time, observe and ask questions, I’ll be better educated when I build and maintain marine engines.

I know some shops don’t like it when the customer is involved or “nosey”. However, I know you get what you pay for, I don’t want to run into an issue trying to use these old salt water headers if there is a problem. I want to thoroughly check these things out.

Thanks.

disregard, I found the thread.

Anyone ever UT their header walls to check for corrosion and thin spots?
