Re: TOY: Engine swaps in CA?

["brandon naves" <im4boardin@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

  As far as I understand, the 350 is CA legal if it's from the same year or 
newer, and the stock exhaust manifold has to come with it.  I've been trying 
to find a way to get legal headers, but I doubt that will happen.
  But, sometimes it just depends on who smogs it for you.  I had and 84 
Camaro that we rebuilt, and in the process put a stock replacement intake 
manifold on.  When smog time came, it was failed because the manifold looked 
too shiny.

  If all goes good, please let us know.  I'm contemplating a 350 swap for 
about 8 months from now, and would like all the details.  I guess that would 
be a good piece for your web page.

The Supra is out???   : (           That was my #1 choice.

So has anyone done a 350 swap in CA on a Toyota and kept it smog legal?

Maybe I'll just use nitrous on my 22RE...  : )

Thanks, y'all...
