Re: question/help...
CA is the smog **** state so all the emissions stuff, necessary or not needs to be swapped in from the donor. This seriously jacks up the cost and complexity
If you dont have a donor 4th gen Fbody, then its even more difficult because everything must be tracked down
Non-emissions swaps require only the minimal of components before the swap specific stuff takes over
