1981 exhaust manifold


I need a right hand exhaust manifold for a 350 with the provisions for the A.I.R. smog fittings. The flange has 3 bolts to the exhaust pipe. The date code needed is anwhere from Jan 1 1979 to Sept 1981. The correct manifold does not have the stabilizer bar between the exhaust ports.

Thanks Al

No it is not a trailored car and yes a 305 has the same manifold. I want as near as possible date code as I went to all the trouble to buy all new AIR tubes, and the AIR pump still works. It is an 1981 Z28 with 80,000 Kilometers and is my wifes car. It has been parked for 9 years and I want to get it back on the road sometime this summer. I am trying to match the build sheet as much as possible as the car was pretty well optioned with Air Conditioning, T-Roofs etc. You do not see too many of this body style camaros or firebirds that are original and my goal is to get it looking and running as it came from the factory.

Thanks for looking and posting the pictures. The manifolds shown do not have the provisions for the AIR tubes. I had a welder look at mine and he is positive he can repair it. There is a new nickel alloy welding rod he bought that is made foe repairing cast iron he is going to use. If it does not work I will keep on looking.

Thanks Al

If Brett is someone from this site, I tried to email you and my email was returned saying my ip address is blocked from the recipient. Thanks for the pics of the manifold you sent and could you email me from this site.

Thanks Al
