TableLeg Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I've contacted a number of companies detailing my requirements for an exhaust system in order to try and get a rough idea of cost and not had a single response. Anyone have any contacts on here I could talk to in order to get a good idea if cost. I essentially have 2x options. Underslung or twin external silencers. Thanks in advance if you can help Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TableLeg Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Thanks BAF, Is this someone you've dealt with personally? Is he familiar with Westfields? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Eastwood (Gadgetman) - Club Chairman Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I know it's a fair old way, but JP Exhausts in Macclesfield have done some cracking work over the years; they also did the bespoke system for Barry's big Chevrolet engined Westfield - I remember seeing it up on the ramps when I called in to pick up a collector they'd modified for me.

TableLeg Posted October 20, 2014 Author Share Posted October 20, 2014 Thanks Dave, The issue I'll have is that I will need to trailer/truck the car to a exhaust builder as the car won't be drive able. Therefore I really want to get an idea of costing beforehand. I've sent out drawings as well as descriptions and not one reply Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blue ass fly Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I used him once,only for a link pipe though He was building a system up on a marcos race car - The manifolds were a work of art Apparently he does/did quite a bit for the factory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SootySport Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I use and recommend http://www.haywardandscott.com/ in Basildon. They will make anything in the exhaust dept. form straightforward stainless pipes to highly polished intricate manifolds and boxes. Anything custom is going to cost yer of course. With an underslung exhaust every speedbump will be you enemy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
