2 contacts below - I've used both these guys / 2.25" stainless steel is probably the max. diameter, for hydraulic pipe bender.
a) L&N Stainless Exhaust - all pipes bent out of stainless steel in-house and S/S mufflers used.
Great guys, nice custom work & they don't overcharge

^^ It was probably 12-15 years ago, I used L & N (on 2 trucks) / place was hard to find without GPS - garage behind house, out in the country.
- their stainless steel muffler install, was only $15 more than Midas aluminized crap / L & N never had a warranty claim, in 12-13 years of business, at the time
- the muffler install on my 5.0L-v8 Chev 4x4 pickup, probably added an honest 20 HP / first paved road I found, squealed the rear tires, for once
b) The other S/S muffler & pipe place I use and is closer to me / workmanship & pipes, turn out perfect. Owner Jim, is a very knowledgeable vintage car guy:

Have you checked on-line? I thought I saw mandrel bent SS kits at Summit or Jegs, complete with pipes, mufflers, crossover etc.
Worth checking prices anyway so you'll know if local guys are reasonable. Coming in from US is likely USD x2 = CAD with exchange, shipping etc.

the thing is i dont want the orig exaust layout that goes with tail pipes that go behind the back wheels
i would like the tail pipes coming in front the back wheels

Pypes or Flowmaster would have a bolt on kit for a 67. I've used regular steel, I painted it with high heat cast iron, repainted it often... my car used to get driven a lot, but you could eat off the undercarriage.
I was more ambitious when I was a teen, I replaced every bolt underneath every few weeks with fresh plated bolts....

so if i used regular steel but hope for good quality
and i never drive the car in the rain and it is always garaged
and i paint them with hi temp clear.......
i guess it would not rust in the first years
