Unhappy cant find exhaust fabricators that can do thick wall

I got some thick wall tubing/u-bents and some mufflers but I need someone to fabricate from the header back. I'm having trouble finding exhuast fabricators in the Seattle-area that can do thick wall, let alone someone who knows what a 12a is. Suggestions?

If you were closer there's a really good shop in Mollola Or, All In Fabrications, but that's probably way too far away.

I could do it. I've built several rotary exhausts with RB thickwall tubing.

You're in luck. I'm just about to build an exhaust system for my 13B MG Midget. Maybe I could squeeze yours in. It is for your rotary powered Midget, isn't it? That's what you're talking about, right?

On second thought I think I'll have to decline. I can't take on any more work right now.

I am sure my friend Sean O'Brien would build you an exhaust if you have a way of transporting your car to my shop in Carnation. He has over 30 years experience building headers and custom exhaust systems for every thing from drag racers and street rods to road racers. He recently did the engine install and custom exhaust for a 13b in a Porsche 968 and is currently working on a turbo system for a 13b in a 59 VW.
---
Attached photos show a few engine swaps and turbo systems he has built. One of the most interesting was a Ferrari 288 GTO, which had a transverse engine, like a 308. He installed a 355 motor, which sits fore-and-aft, and built a twin turbo system for it.

The photos of the Sylvia turbo in the Z3 and the blue Chevelle show he can work in tight spaces.

I also recommend Sean as a fabicator, I live down the street from Ben and see Sean quite often.
A real pro and knows metal better then anybody that I have personaly worked with, Iam having him do all my Stainless work on my Turbo FB project.
If you are in Seattle then this should be your first choice....if you live in Oregon then I would consider the other options.
