I need help from the California members. Will going to the euro flat top pistons during a rebuild effect the emissions on a '76 2.0. And can you still meet emissions with a mild cam? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif)

I went through the same thing on my 2l rebuild. I wanted to get new pistons for better compression ratio and to replace my tired old pistons and ended up going with 96mm KB pistons. They are $275 with rings and will yeild a 2056cc displacement. And you can get a higher compressoin ratio (I think around 9.2 depending on head CCs).
I dont know about emissions with this setup. Im pretty sure other people in california run this, but I dont know if they are 73 (like me) or before. |
