This will be light shop use, stainless exhausts and aluminum piping for turbo and cooling projects.

I'd go with an Everlast AC/DC multiprocess for light shop use. Miller makes tremendous machines, but a Miller worth buying is going to be cost-prohibitive. For light shop use, I'd buy a full function Everlast for less than a basic Miller TiG. I use both foot pedal and trigger torch. Will you be using it on a dedicated welding table? A lot of times if I have to TiG on the car, I have to use my trigger instead of pedal. Get a nice dedicated diamond wheel for your tungsten.
I think Everlast makes an AC/DC Tig with pulse, waveform, etc, with mig and stick for like $1500. That one welder with Ar and C25 bottles replaces just about every welder for any light shop use.
