IMO, stock manifolds unless you need shorties to clear aftermarket heads/etc. Money can be spent elsewhere, and manifolds are reliable, spool great, and can support 2000hp.

yup...I for sure would do stock manifolds. It's a shame the LS7 manifolds off a vette won't work.

+1
If our kits were under performing on stockers and shorties were needed that would be a different story. But they're putting down more power than anything on dyno's across the country using stock manifolds. The reliability and heat retention of nice thick cast manifolds is a huge advantage. Mandrel bent, welded together headers warp, leak and crack in the long run. And spark plug access and not burning wires is such a big deal on a high HP car.
