Renegade Update
After a VERY long hiatus, it is going to happen. If you are interested, I have engaged with a foundry that IS going to do some test pours soon. I will have to check for quality of pours, finish and how our machining quality, fitment etc... I still have a little ways to go before I pull the trigger full blast, but at least the project is moving forward. I have all the tooling weighed and waiting on the foundry to send me a shipping quote so I can get the tooling out of here. 
I hope this helps to all the people asking this question.

I was kinda sorta trying to make a joke for the '84 C4 guys and gals, but you are right. The 82-84 Camaro/Firebird owners are also a target market for these "new" manifolds.
It's kind of a shame that forum rules seem to prohibit one of the good guys from posting more about this developing story. See this.
