Repairing headers

Anyone know of a good place local that would be able to repair a flp longtube header for me? I picked up a set cheap but the passenger side has some carnage from a clutch explosion. i think they will have to have a small section cut out and replaced on one or two the have a couple good dents and one has a small hole nothing insanely serious. im pretty sure they are stainless. i pick em up cheap hoping to salvage the set, come on guys give me some hope...

thanks,
Greg

Re: Repairing headers

i dont know where your dents are on the headers, but my dad bottomed his car out going over a bridge once and smashed the primaries. he fixed them by heating the dents up and carefully hammering a pipe into them. I dont know if his were stainless and whether or not that method would work on stainless. just a suggestion.
