Talk to Jim Kish --
http://kishbike.com/ . He's in quasi-Norcal (San Luis Obispo) but he's a fantastic Ti builder. In fact he teaches welding at UBI and often does the rear triangle (the hard part) of Ti frames for other builders like Curtis Ingliss.
Full disclosure -- I have a road bike from him and it's the sweetest thing I've ever ridden. Pics at:
