Anyone know the chances of passing smog with a cracked exhaust manifold?

Imagine it would fine unless its massive. My dad had his smogged in Las Vegas with a huge hole and it passed they said it burned amazingly clean yeah I wonder why. Hold on I have smog guys next door let me go ask(pause) He said if it a hairline crack is should be fine.

Pretty sure I did. I'm sure it will just help you since some of the toxins escape before the cat

I did it about 2 months ago. Tech even said it was passed with flying colors.

You CAN, depending on how bad. Find a local place that has a pass or no pay station.

Mine is about 75 % cracked around the two to one collector and it passed with flying colors back in August. I put 91 octane in it and drove it for about 30 mins before taking it to the smog guy to make sure it was good and warmed up.
