Most commercial offerings go 45* 90* 180* bends, having custom bends will get pricey due to set-up charges. Go with 6" radius bends cut in half to get length out of the port instead of a tighter bend and a straight off the port. Exit angle will parallel the flange angle and only 4 180* bends are needed and you can fudge the cut at the flange to get them standing straighter if you want

If you can get Ted to bend you a set he has no problem with custom bend. I use to get 3 different angle per set and cost was very reasonable.

I've been told Stainless headers crack up? Is that an urban myth?
dreracecar:
only because people tend to make SS headers thinner and that makes the service life is shorter, You make them the same gage as mild and they weigh a ton. So you wind up spending twice the amount for SS and can get 1/2 the service life
