So your turbo mounting flange will fit which turbo housings? I currently have the STS base kit turbo but will upgrade to a 67 once I get my 5.7l engine built.
If I buy these I would most likely get them plated or coated, maybe JET HOT or Nickel just to keep corrosion down. Ever heard of turbo hot parts being plated with Nickel and holding up to the heat? I know it's just a replacement for the stock manifold on that side so it should not run any hotter than stocker other than the engine putting out a little more heat/power that is over a stocker.
The only reason I say Nickel plated is it looks better than chrome IMO and is the plating that goes on before chrome in most cases anyway.

I would go with ceramic coatings because it is going to hold in the heat so the turbo spools faster and will look better longer than nickel or chrome.

those are some killer prices but we all know logs wont make any power
dont sell your stuff so cheap that is isn't worth your time to build the parts. $1600 for header, down pipe and crossover with flex tube and vbands seems like almost too good of a deal.
