[SCOTI]

The only problem I've got w/them implementing this is the goal should be cleaner air, PERIOD, without all the 'red tape' & BS rules.

During the 60's & leaded fuel era, the 'powers that be' weren't worried about todays air quality. There are other ways to make our cars/trucks run clean(er) and still make the power we all want without being restricted by rules that are outdated.

I feel REGULARLY driven vehicles, NO MATTER WHAT YEAR MODEL, should not be gross polluters. I also feel as long as it burns cleaner than what the regulations call for (that year model) it shouldn't matter what you do under the hood.

You want to install a twin turbo in your 82 year model vehicle?? No prob, as long as you pass the sniffer.
No cats, or maybe you want true duals on your 87?? No prob, as long as you pass the sniffer.

The goal should be cleaner air. Human beans are a creative lot, & as car crafters we sometimes know our machinery a little better than the bureaucrats making the laws. Bring on the chassis loaded sniffer tests but don't worry about the big block thats under my hood. . . ... falls off of soap-box.
