    I'd use cast iron factory manifolds to insure clearance around starter, steering, filter,fuel lines etc----------you can get them ceramic coated for appearance----headers won't give you any performance/milage advantage and in fact will probably knock it down in most rpm ranges that you drive on the street----and then there are the burnt plug wires, increased under hood temps causing vapor lock, difficulty to seal, spark plug change difficulty----------list goes on and on






    There are some cast iron manifolds out there for the spec racing classes that would be a good choice for this
