I've got one of the earlier systems, LTHs + CBE. I have zero cracks, leaks, or noticed any weakening of the system. 3 years and counting.
How? This is 50'000 miles, 3 harsh ohio winters, 300 plus HP, almost 400 TQ from a turbo so much hotter gas, and besides surface rust on the pipe that happens in ohio which you can see comes right off where I polished it, it looks beautiful with no leaks. You saying a flex pipe will fail eventually is the same as me saying your header will crack and leak since it has no flex pipe in the system and since the header isn't made of 321SS. Anything could happen but from my racing experience you need a flex pipe on big motor high HP applications. You might be ok though since these motors have no TQ!
