Default ZDZ 80 header for canister... Where to get?

Hi everyone..
I'm planning on installing a ZDZ 80 with JMB canister in my 1/3 laser... So far the only header I have found is for a horizontaly mounted motor. I am installing inverted. Do I need to fabricate my own header? Or is there someone out there that I dont know about who sells headers that will fit a ZDZ?
Thanks for looking!

I would say that you will have to fabricate your own header. I doubt there is enough of a market for somebody to prefab. different headers, with different drops, lengths, positions, for this engine. I made a header for this engine by silversoldering three 90 degree bends, a flange and a straight piece of tubing, all Krumscheib parts.

Desert Aircraft sells the parts to fabricate the header for the 80.
