Well, Chris, it isn't that simple. Detlev's is not a Certified Smog
Inspection Station so he can't pass anything. And don't think I am not
apprehensive, although I did contact the State of California and a
Jaguar shop that puts 350 Chevys into Jags before I went ahead with
this. Everyone assured me that it was possible to do a conversion and be
legal. Detlev is following the rules.
