As long as the upper is only ever pinned to the rifle lower when the suppressor is applied to the upper first, no special lower is required correct? Else a pistol lower can be used with the SBR upper with no paperwork required.

Nope, still two stamps.
UNLESS you buy a integral suppressor and the overall length of the barrel and suppressor is 16" (Suppressor can not come off, its either blind pinned or welded).

For the record, most people recommend NOT welding on a can.

2 stamps no matter if you weld it, stake it, super glue it or use gum to attach to the barrel..... you are not going to be able to procure the suppressor without a stamp or take possession of the lower without a stamp

Now if you don't have a registered lower or pistol lower you are taking a risk at having an illegal rifle in the house. The only tax stamp you will have to pay is the suppressor tax stamp, if it was me I would go ahead and pay the extra stamp because now you are looking at paying around the same to get the all the gun smithing done for something small plus you can take the suppressor off and clean it regularly.

I'd rather do two stamp taxes so i could have a can that goes on multiple weapons.

So it's not necessarily a two stamp gun. I had a 11.5" upper that I welded a Tac-16 suppressor to. Brought it out to well over 16" so no stamp needed. I'm planning on attaching it to another short upper, welding it on, then running a rail out over the can. I never use that suppressor anyway, so I might as well do something with it and a 16" barrel with a suppressor is just too damn long.
