A buddy of mine who races motorcycles told me a bout a method to fix (sort of) a dented header (for bikes at least) and i was wondering if this was a norm for cars.... (my spoon sports header is dented on the bottom and i hate it)

essentially you take a completely rounded ball of steel on a chain that is slightly smaller then the size of the primary of the header. Then you heat the section of the header that is dented and slowly pull the ball through widening the dent back to a circular shape rather then the crushed up version I currently have.

 

sounds like a good idea

 

i thought so too--- i just dont know where the hell to get something like this...and lets be honest---im not creative enough to make it

you'll have to heat the header pretty hot

 

thats a given.... but i am lookin at where to find that ball and chain thing :::enters girlfriend/wife joke here::::

but seriously.... is there something made to do that? and would you have to grease the inside of the header?
