I'm not sure aluminum is better, except for weight savings, and aluminum
transfers more heat from the exhaust. Aluminum was probably used
originally because it is easier and cheaper to cast the complex shapes.
The performance manifolds sold by Maniflow are made from carbon steel,
and I don't see the need for the additional cost associated with a SS
fabrication.
