I was planning on doing this on 86 also, but I bitched
out because of lack of funds. It's hard to find a
manifold that isn't cracked, but if it's weldable,
then it's all good. Get your hands on one those, call
TT and order the dual downpipe (you can have a cat or
no cat) and then top it off with a Sport Tuned
exhuast. You'll
be flying after that. From what I hear the difference
between headers and the dual manifold in negligable.
