Are you sure? Which version of MacTeX did you install? The standard  
MacTeX.dmg from <http://www.tug.org/mactex/>, or some alternative  
version from <http://www.tug.org/mactex/morepackages.html>?

Normally I think MacTeX does include AMS-TeX. At least in my case it  
does: there are amstex binaries inside

/usr/local/texlive/2007/bin/

the amstex format inside

/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-var/web2c/pdftex/

and associated input files inside

/usr/local/texlive/2007/texmf-dist/tex/amstex/
