Default cylinder head repair

Need a recommendation of a shop that can repair cast iron cylinder heads. My heads have some cracks in exhaust manifold flanges. I'm in NY but will ship if need be.

I believe Indy Cylinder Heads welds cast iron heads. They built a special oven to hold them at temperature while welding them.

Theres also a place up around Louisville that does all types of cast iron I believe. Name escapes at the moment. No experience with them though

We have used this business countless times. Never had a problem with their repairs holding up. Although sometimes you can see where the welds were made.

VortecPro had a set of heads done, he has a thread here somewhere. After the work was completed you could not see where the welding was done. Outstanding work done.
