Catalytic converters are no problem, as I can weld on universal ones...

...This is for a 5-speed with a single O2 sensor.
How many catalytic converters was the vehicle built with? That's how many you can legally have unless you can find some "kit" with an EPA or CARB exemption number.

My 10/82 Canadian built van SBC was black over blue paint from GM. Block had mid July casting number stampings. The black layer started peeling, exposing corporate blue. 82 vans were definitely blue engines. 83 was black. Apparantly some blocks for early 83 production were repainted which I find odd, but none the less they were.
