introduction from (to?) California

[jiho]

You're looking into this a little hard, I have a 5.7l TBI swapped into my jeep and I'm in California. As long as the exhaust manifolds look stock (I have ramhorn exhaust manifolds instead of the stock rear dump) and you have a catalytic converter with the right EO number, they don't really care to much about the exhaust. The one and only reason I failed my first smog referee inspection was because I reused my jeep charcoal canister instead of the chevy one that was for the engine..... Went to the pick and pull and pulled one out of the same year k1500 and all was good second time around.

My problem with the LO5 swap is, there are plenty of the truck motors, and plenty of cars with the add-on parts, but not (so far) the California-certified PROM chip (BBBX for 1993 B-bodies).

(AWJN or BCWZ for 1993 Cadillac Fleetwood would also work, none of those either.)
