how many of the emissions guys are going to know?, if you were putting in a ramjet or a merlin race block maybe, but I doubt it would be an issue.

Not condoning illegal behavior :D just saying I doubt it would ever come up as long as you run clean. ;)

They dont have to visually inspect anything older than 83, but they must visually inspect newer ones. Most inspectors do know the difference between a V8 and a inline 6. The county has them running scared right now and they are very carefull not to put their licences at risk.
