Of course they do, LOL... there are 30 Stangs on the road to one Crossfire. A company could sell portable toasters for Mustangs and sell enough as a gag gift to stay in business. I've even seen Mustang specific companies release performance parts before the platform was out for a month. Tons of money to be made there, same with GM. All we have are the Benz tuners, and those guys are all focused on the 5.5 TT motor... M112 is a dinosaur.

Definitely an idea, and SD is out of the hunt completely so it's hardly a race. I'm still trying to figure out how a set could be designed that would make power. The VRP headers were a fail, and we don't have room for long-tubes (mass produced). LET/Eurocharged made some log-style manifolds a while back and IIRC they didn't make any power, which was shocking given how successful the Kleemann log is on the M113K.
How hard would it be to bolt an OEM manifold to a used head, weld a mounting plate in position that mates to the rear flange, and design a shorty within those confines? The VRP headers were close but they still struck the bell housing
