My car is registered as a historical vehicle - no smog - $25 a year...
I am only supposed to drive to parades and such, but three years as a daily driver and not one mention by anyone. Besides, prove I am not going to a parade.... |

Just smile and tell the officer you are on your way to the Gay Pride parade in Pokipsee and ask if he wants to go with a wink... This will upset him on so many levels he is likely to just send you on your way... Not that there is anything wrong with the Gay Pride parade in Pokipsee... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I had a gay student who said he got out of tickets by flirting with the cop. |

I got lucky here in Colorado, the county I live in dropped out of the emissions testing (and if they ever go back I'll just get the collector car plates for mine and never have to test again).
I agree these things are not about clean air but about bureaucrats believing they should be able to dictate every aspect of our lives. You think cars are bad, you should try being a gun nut too (I can't imagine what it must be like for gun owners in states like CA, IL and NJ). At least when you buy a muffler for a car you don't have to register it with the federal government and pay them a $200 tax (IMG:style_emoticons/default/tongue.gif) |

You could let me have the car. I like those 904's anyway. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/av-943.gif) We don't do smog testing in Floyd County. Yet. And you could borrow it from time to time.
Seriously, I hope it passes tomorrow before RCR. I am looking forward to seeing it run. |

Update time, Engine PASS on one side but failed the other side.
To made a long story short I remove the head off the side that failed. WTF, I found this on both pistons  Removed the other head and found the same thing but not as bad just dings. I found on the bad side both exhaust valves were bent!! After talking to Al and Blade Meredith it was determine that the web86b cam with a .500 lift and stock springs the valves were floating and hitting the pistons which were made by AA (stock 2.0 ltr) . Blake suggested I install heavy valve springs, thats to John Jentz who had a spare set I will be installed them tommorow. |

Guys, you arent thinking outside the box....
The work around is quite simple... If you are using a 911 engine and suspension parts, get a title and 911 vin from a wreck and apply for a "rebuilt" title. If you are using a 914 engine use a 914 vin and do the same. Like anyone at the bmv ever saw a 904 or would even know one if it ran over them.... |

Add a couple of gallons of denatured alcohol to your gas tank and then run it through. The motor will blow all kinds of clean. Or you could just call it a 914.
