Cost efficient Headers for lsx swap

Any good ideas for headers for a lsx swap using the factory k member?? Any advantages to scrapping the factory k member for a spohn tubular member? I have looked everywhere for some headers but the only prices I find are between 800-1200. Any ideas?

Modifying some cheap headers is the most cost effective way i've seen.

Read https://www.thirdgen.org/forums/ltxhtml -lsx/561990-hawks-new-ls-swap. Bruce Hawkins mentions a group purchase towards the end of the first page for $550 (1 5/8 primaries, stainless, 3 inch collectors).
