what are my options for an exhaust?

ok guys i have a huge delema. im planing on having a 400s/b built with around 575 to 625 hp. if i do a roller motor the guy who is going to build it for me told me it will rev to 7500 possibly 8000 rpms. my car is lowered and i have the spohn trans x member and driveshaft loop. im looking at stainless works for my headers. they are full length but hug the floor for ground clearance. everything from there will need to be done at a shop. what do i have to go with id like to keep a single exhaust for clearance but i know the engine will not allow that. any input from everyone will help alot!...thanks guys.

If you actually get that motor into your ride, you will NOT want to do with a Y-pipe style exhaust. It's dumped duals at that point, or don't even bother =P

I love my Mufflex 4 inch exhaust and they say it will support up to 600 horses.
