Looking for a complete replacement exhaust system for 1970 428/4-speed Eliminator. Does anyone make a stainless steel exhaust system from stock manifolds out to back bumper? If so, is it worth the trouble or just go with aluminized steel? Opinions?

Waldrons Exhaust makes SS systems.

I just poked around at Waldron, and the pricing for stainless seemed more reasonable than in the past. Their “store” lets you get most of the way, but a phone call would probably cut through any questions. They show 8-12 week backlog. Waldron may promise stuff like muffler length is same as OEM and on a high value car like yours, that (and stainless) would be a good investment.
I’m using one from an outfit in CT Precision Exhaust on my '68 302. The owner is a nice guy eager to please. He may only offer aluminized like mine, which looks perfect after 3 years. It required only a little persuasion on a pipe or two. If you buy through WCCC, it gets drop shipped from there anyway.

Depending on the gauge, a S.S. system could be considerably more heavy that a regular option. Something to inquire about I suppose.
The most accurate 1970 B2 and 428 exhaust system is Scott Fullers. He does not do stainless, but he will do all aluminized including h-pipe if desired.
Are you restoring this, or driving it ?
I am restoring it AND then driving it.
Your car deserves the Scott Fuller system.
Sounds like it’s not going to be a trailer queen, but a day 2 car with your mods maybe. $2500 or less than $1000 for stainless.
Save the money for tires IMO
