I've got this header for my car, but the only drawback is that it was for a RHD car. So basically I need it modified to clear the steering shaft. Any recommendations on what shop to go to?

Ok. Any SHOPS that do this and do good work? I don't want it to be a hack job. I want someone that will make it look good.

You can bring it to us. We just had to modify some v8 headers to clear the steering shaft.
