Default Small exhaust leak

So I took Little Red Rover wheeling in Pike National Forest this past Saturday. On the dirt road on the way home I noticed my exhaust sounded a little louder than normal. I got home, got out and saw this:









Does anyone know of a good but inexpensive muffler shop in the Denver area that can weld up a new system? It'll have be custom because most of the original mounting points are modified or gone.

So many exhaust shops but I can't really recommend one that is outstanding for one reason or another.
I take heads to the guys at Colorado Custom Cylinder Heads 3260 South Platte River Drive Englewood, CO 80110 (303) 761-9077
They're always cool to bull**** with, have been there for years, know disco motors.. I'm certain they know a ton of guys that do custom exhaust. Just a thought. At least they're good guys and know what they're talking about.
Are you ever on Rising Sun? Someone on that site "knows a guy" I'm sure. It's a great group on there.

Also, your pic doesn't work. I want to see the carnage.

Thanks for the info, Todd. I'll probably give that cylinder shop a call. I have a bike I'm building that needs some head work done so I'm glad to have that recommendation. And I'll definitely check out Rising Sun. The guy I was wheeling with is running a Toyota so I'll share that with him too.

Also, does the pick work now?

It does. Sweet rig, minus the lazy exhaust of course. I'm surprised I haven't seen you around. I'm mostly in lakewood though. Those guys at that engine shop are cool. It's the kind of place I like walking into. No bull****, honest dudes and you get the feeling there's one or more shotguns stashed around. Good people.

Yeah, I don't make it out to Lakewood much, I'm bounce around Capitol Hill/Baker/LoDo mostly. Red also isn't my daily driver so keeps a low profile.

I'm looking forward to checking that shop out! It really sounds like my kind of place.
