1 piece stainless tubular headers with a stainless case around them from HI-Tek
They are made in Australia, I looked at a set before I bought Stainless Marine......they are BIG $$$$$ but nice looking.

Very good looking. A cool idea. I absolutely admit I don't know but I do wonder how the bottom end of these will hold up compared, say, to Stainless Marine. If you read all the Stainless Marine pages, it sounds like they started out building manifolds purely from stainless steel, and ultimately moved to the aluminum manifold/stainless-steel riser setup they have today, as they were unhappy with how stainless steel manifolds performed under the heat. If I read it right. I have ZERO direct experience here, just remarking on what I read. The hi-teks are all stainless steel I *think*. Even IF all this is true, doens't mean they might not be WAY better than cast iron. Also, I wonder if the hi-teks' geometry might not have more water and keep most of the metal cooler, but I am now speculating even more than I was before. Just thinking out loud. Enough hijack, back to everyone's engine pics...
Here is a pic of the motors in the Dirty Pearl. They are 540's with 8-71 Superchargers.
