Here's a motor I just wrapped up for a buddy while I save up to rebuild mine. It's a 416 Scat rotating assymbly from Todd Marsh, CNC prepped Eldelbrock heads from Hughes Engine as well as one of their hydraulic cams.
Putting it on the dyno Thursday, hoping for 500 HP.

I will suggest that you cut the tie bars between the header flanges to let them grow without worping the flanges

I thought that's why the good headers have the 3/8" thick flanges now is to resist the warping. I like your idea though.
Also a VERY important thing to do is drill 1 of the holes to a larger diameter to allow the flange to slide instead of worping(if you have 2 5/16 bolts holding each tube or the pair of tubes drill 1 hole to 3/8")

Yeah most guys dont want to cut them on coated headers.. I cut them off before I take them to get coated... if he wants to he should drill 1 hole larger per set of tubes and that would be covered by the bolt/nut head
