[Amps] A-480 Plate Transformer Core

I have a defunct Ten-Tec Titan power transformer with an A-480 core. I would like to get it re-wound for an 8877 amplifier. 2900 to 3000 VAC at 800 ma CCS. 

I would really like to not send the core. I would like to get the "copper" wound up and then simply install my core. I have the tools at my disposal to band the core back together.

Any suggestions who to ask about getting it re-wound? Will the re-winder supply just the winding?  Is there an advantage to sending the re-winder the core?  


I think the primary is on the outside of the windings... Anyone know if this is true?  What is the advantage of having the primary on top of the secondary?



Thanks
