The Manley severe-duty and extreme duty are favorites, as well as the Ferrea super-duty.

Regardless of the manufacturer, Inconel is a must on the exhaust side. I have seen what happens when it is not used. Two separate occasions. Not Good!

Extreme Duty is Manley inconel.
Super alloy, I believe is what Ferrea's inconel is called.
