Exhaust Manifold Fabricator

Please can anybody recommend a fabricator for a bespoke Stainless Steel 4 into one manifold/exhaust set up. I'm in the South West area and looking for a local company/individual.
The car is a Haynes Roadster with Sierra 2.0L DOHC engine. Currently using the original manifold with a single 2.5" mild steel pipe to a Kawasaki silencer.
I'm planning on 1.75" primaries into a collector with 2.5"outlet.

Thanks in advance

John W

Not local but I've heard some good reports on these guys linky
Alternatively Dave Tyler in Swindon did a great job on my Lancia exhaust but only does mild steel though that's lasted well.
HTH.

I believe maniflow will do a bespoke manifold for not too much cash. Think they are near Salisbury.

Not exactly local but I thought I'd mention PD GOUGH nr nottingham who recently did me two manifolds for my v8. Hey cost £400 per side and the quality is super!

They gave me a rough estimate over the phone because they've done a fair few 7's and when I arrived the boss plus one of their fabricators spent a good hour or so talking through exactly what I wanted.

They cut all the holes in my body panels and have made some hole-surrounds for me to fit once the project is complete.

I honestly can't recommend them high enough! Great bunch of old-skool engineers!

They did offer me tuned lengths for my primaries but my budget wouldn't stretch to that!

Not cheap at all, I got quoted £600 for a x-flow manifold and another £300 for the silencer. I'm sure it would have been great but !!!

Just sent you a message. I'm just outside Tavistock and can probably help!
