If you have the resources, just do it.
Now ive been doing some research here.
Custom made mild steel extractors made here, anywhere from $900-$1100AUD (So probably $750-$900USD???)
Stainless steel 3000GT headers $375US+ shipping on ebay.
This is a potential $400AU i could be saving by buying 3000GT stainless headers.
Is it possible to have the pipes cut in half and sort of lengthened?
Becuase i can save a real lot of money by buying off the shelf headers.
I read here that the 3000GT ones pretty much just sit under the oilpan which would mean i would need to get these lengthened.

ones like this...
