The information comes from the February issue of an auto restoration
magazine called "Skinned Knuckles" (page 10, middle of right-hand column).
The author of the article in question is Bill Cannon, an engineer who has
been intimately involved with catalytic converter design, development and
regulatory environment since 1953.
Fianlly, on a re-reading of the article I discover that I was not quite
complete in my citation: It seems American Honda will only warrant
emissions equipment for 14 years/150K on certain California models only.
The rest are covered under the standard EPA-dictated 8/80 warranty.
