Off the shelf twin exhaust system for rover V8 MGB?

Hi all,

I'm building my GT with a Rover (Buick) V8 motor. I want to use a twin pipe setup with exhausts exiting either side of the fuel tank, which I have already centralised. However, I cannot find an off the shelf system even though a lot of the cars on this site seem to have them. Were they custom made or does anyone know a supplier?

The MGOC in the UK do a system, but its for cars using the RV8 style exhaust manifolds and my car will be using block huggers.

Many thanks

If not, who can fabricate one?

I don't live in that big a town, but it must have at least a dozen competent muffler shops and I expect any of them could do the job in aluminized steel tubing. If you want a particular make/model muffler or an x-pipe, you'd probably have to source that yourself.
