Bead rolling aluminum intercooler piping?

Post by Jake Stumph »

Hey All, looking to have the end of a piece of aluminum intercooler piping bead rolled to help keep the silicone coupler on it when it meets 18psi worth of fun. Can anyone recommend a shop or individual who can bead roll aluminum? Located in Long Beach/562 area, and work in West LA, but don't mind driving, as long as it's reasonable.

Here's a reference picture:

I've just acquired a bead roller if you haven't gotten it done yet. I accept payment in beers if anyone needs something bead rolled :).
