Many of should take note if we live in states that are or have adopted CARB emissions requirements. All of our Vanagons with water boxer engines are "50 state" vehicles. The air cooled ones where either a "49 state" or California version. I am a bit confused if we have some leeway being older than 1993 but it appears that in New York we will be required to use OEM or CARB approved converters for replacements. Also note the restrictions for used converters are for "any" model year vehicle.
