440/520 Stroker with max wedge exhaust manifolds question

Gonna throw in my two cents, probably not worth that much.....
Imo, max manifolds are neat, and better than magnum hipo's, but not as good as headers. They are heavy, almost impossible to fit, don't look right not hooked to a max crossram motor, and are way too expensive, original or repop.
For a stroker in anything but a 62-64 b-body, I would not consider max manifolds for a minute. Headers 100%.
(Perspective: I have a REAL max wedge engine, and a 62 savoy. The car is way too modified to be considered a clone, even with a real max in it. I MIGHT someday buy a set to put on the max if I decide to sell the engine, but it's using headers in my car, period.
