i have only been able to find a MAC header for my bike and im not liking that fact that the actual header is black with the choice of a black or chrome muffler im looking for an all chrome set up....my last resort is to purchase the black one with chrome muffler and have the header portion ceramic coated any ideas, links, opinions, or help??? thanks in advance

Pretty old school most makers are concentrating on new models. Would a 650's fit. Might try a google or yahoo search for a 650 exhaust.

Dennis Kirk shows only 550's fit - any model from 80-85. Off to ebay or wreckers, I would guess: although the black/chrome would look good in my opinion.

84 GPZ750. Modded with stock Kawasaki parts: ZR-7 shock, ZX-6 coils, GPZ1100 throttle, EN454 brake, GPZ900 fuse box, etc. and non stock: Ken Sears mirrors, K&N filter, Pirelli Sport Demons.

That's an Alphabet brand system, and from what I've heard they perform really well due to how the collector is designed where the individual head pipes connect to it.
Unfortunately I don't belive they're manufactured anymore. With just under 24 hours left and at the current price (135.00), I'd jump on that if it were for a 650/750! :woohoo:

Covina, So Calif!
78 KZ650-B2 = SOLD

84 ZX750 GPz = SOLD

How aboout this?
www.laserexhausts.com

They have a listing for your machine. An all chrome 4 into 1. Its a British site so your kz550c is called a z550c.
