whoever told u this is a moron...ive already got my CARB exemption number through my referee...

------------------

 

were do u get the exemption number from... I thought the same that cali had a MAX ad that included all engines like V-8's and all.. But when i get my 3.4 im gonna put a cam rockers evereything and im going agasint my belif's and gona put it on the bottle =) it will be nice and also i wanted to put a vortech in when the time comes so ill ask ya when i do decide to get it.... But i was just passin on what i herd from people

 

well...heres thd bottom line on engine swaps...if u put in an engine from the same year (89) then they'd smog it AS THAT ENGINE...so say i put in a 350 from an 89 z28, theyd smog it as a 350. BUT...since im putting in a newer engine, they smog it as the engine that was in there previously, so they'll smog our 3.4's as 2.8's... OHHH...btw i found 2 3.4's for 600 bucks in fontana if ur interested...

I was just thinkin of boeinge mine out and putting in a bigger crank when the time came and have my friend rebuild it for me. I was gonna do a Camp Rockers And try to figure out what kind pistons go good with NOS ut when i see my friend again ill ask what way would be better...

 

yea, use the 3.4 crank and if u bore .050 ur a 3.4...
