Question is there a recall for the 1980 20R exhaust manifolds?

Is this recall still valid? What exactly does it entail?

lol I seriously doubt it. They had problems with warpage and cracking. If yours isn't cracked you can probably have it resurfaced. I love the exhaust leak noise ;-) GL!

i know the old 20R manifolds were kinda prone to cracking, but if yours cracks just go down to the boneyard and get another one for 20 bucks. or better yet, get a header, the old manifolds were an absolutely horrible design.
