I'd rather use the stock manifolds over the shorties. Most of the truck guys I've talked to said that they didn't pick up much horsepower over stock. Plus you don't have to worry about the stock manifolds cracking.

only one real way to see how much more power those things are worth are back to back dyno or swap it out and see if you can hit a faster MPH at the track.

That cast iron is very durable... not that stainless isn't, but temperatures start to get extreme like in a turbo application, the cast iron is going to be more reliable. You will not have to worry about cracks or even exhaust leaks against the head nearly as much! Stainless expands and contracts with changes in temperature much more than cast iron.
