My 1980 had a badly cracked stock exhaust manifold and i've been having little luck coming up with a replacement. I've had suggestions to go MSDS but having a hard time getting a call back from them and hearing horror stories about having to clearance engine mounts or pull the head to install. Any leads on a serviceable replacement manifold would be appreciated.

The one on my car is a 048-129-587D However I have also seen some references to a 047-129-587C but cant find a clear answer if that is a cross compatible part.

Thanks for the advice!
