If you want to do it cheaply and not have a "professional" fabricate one for you, then I would say to chop up the 8v exhaust and tack it
(or even tape it) together and then get a local welder just to weld it up for you.
If you want to go one step further you could buy an aftermarket exhaust (like a TSR one) off ebay and do the same as above...

Dave Tyler in Wooton Bassett nr. Swindon is worth a try. Tel: 01793 849430. He can be a bit elusive this time of year as he's doing exhausts for
the classic racers. Not partic. cheap but first rate work and really knows his stuff.
Cheers, Pewe  PS mild steel only though - no stainless.
