One of the Rimmer kits would have all of that. Their price converter showed
about $740 before shipping. The header included in that kit might be a slight
improvement over the stock manifold.
TRF has a system with a more substantial header that lists for $1100 without
shipping (RFK1405). It appears that a "fitting kit" with clamps and hangers is
separate though.
Both are made in stainless.
Things get a lot louder with a header though. Especially if you have increased
the engines compression and are running a high lift cam. If you have only done
a mild performance rebuild in the engine then the stock dual exhaust manifold
and the simple twin sports system would be my recommendation. It would still
flow well, sound good, look good (IMHO) and the addition of a header probably
wouldn't make bit of performance difference.
