It can be hard to quantify the difference in price between, say, a $100 pair of headers and a $900 pair of headers until you see them up close. Things come sharply into focus, however, when you have the opportunity to see how the products are made. Once you witness all the steps involved, the machines employed, and the craftsman doing the labor, you start to wonder how, even at that higher price, the more expensive part could possibly be profitable for the company. Located just 17 miles south of where I grew up in Cleveland, Ohio, Stainless Works has been making high-quality exhaust parts for nearly 20 years. Owner Ron Fuller was kind enough to give me a tour of his 50,000-square-foot facility during a recent visit.
