the port spacing should be fine. prior to starting the project I found these, or similar on ebay. the company would make a SS version for $150. I chose to use the M54 set bc I got them for $40.
all you are really gaining is you don't have to cut the manifold off the flange, which only took ~15 minutes with a cutoff wheel and sawzall. however, its always nice to start with a fresh machined piece rather than ~10 yr heat cycled metal...
