i was driving to work the other evening and my 84 720 started spitting and spuddering... i got home and popped the hood and the exhaust manifold was cherry red. Is this a sign the converter is stopped up?

most likely ignition module if it has electronic ignition.

the symptoms you have could be either problem.
