Im am sure this has been asked a thousand times, but, the "Search" didnt pull anything for me.

To my understanding, California auto's that are 1975 or older are smog exempt. What steps are needed to register your early 914's? I am looking to going with a 6 conversion and want to make sure i wont have any restrictions. Thnx in advance.

If I remember correctly, the "legalities" are such that if you replace it with a "newer" engine, you're SUPPOSED to put all the smog from the newer engine. However, if you have a car older than 75, and an engine newer than 75, chances are nobody is going to CHECK. If you go with an older engine, then you're supposed to keep the smog equipment of the year/make/model for which you are registering. Again, chances are nobody will check.
