Are Macs pipes gone forever ?
 
I have just found out Macs pipes are no longer available (the owner passed away recently sadly).
Is there any plan to restart production or is it really over ?
Thanks

I don’t have any inside info on Macs but being glow engine sales have been declining in recent years I doubt the pipes will be coming back.

His business was up to buy after his passing and not sure if anyone bought it. it was a good deal i though money wise but I didnt want to buy it as I can't weld or do much fabrication work. I heard maybe RJL will buy them but that was a couple months ago. Like everything you never know what you will miss until its gone. Now i want pipes and headers for many engines and will not be able to get them.....

Well, they are/were not the only company making these things, there is also justengines for instance that still have a lot to offer, including custom jobs; http://www.justengines.co.uk/acatalo...t_Systems.html

Around here, this guy is used a lot. Not sure about pipes and headers specifically though. http://www.bissonmufflers.com/en/index.html I had always wanted to make pipes and headers, but have retired, and it is good.

WestonUk must be out of business. I've sent them two emails with no answer.

If RJL buys them then they are dead.
