Whoohoo! It passed emissions test.


Recommended Posts

Was kind of dreading having to test the Z. With the L28 and SU's used to take me a few tries to get it done. But the new LS2 passed with flying colors on the first run. I did use my Predator to re-install the stock tune before hand. The guys at the test station looked really funny when I popped the hood, and got out the big book, then just shook their heads and hooked it up. Couple of minutes later the screen read PASS!

Way to go! I only wish they had used the data port on mine. But noooooo.....not in sunny Arizona, nothing that simple. Dig this, when I rolled up they asked what year car. '1975'. 'Open your hood please', at which time they see the Corvette fuel rail covers. So in the never ending brilliance of a government worker, the guy says 'OK, we'll test it as a 75 Corvette'. 'But it's a 75 Datsun with a 2001 Camaro engine', says I. 'No it isn't', says he, 'It's a 75 Corvette as far as out test go. See it says Corvette right on the motor'. By now there are 5 guys looking at the motor, and the spec book, and back at the motor, and then a little girl in the back pipes up with 'See if there's a 75 Datsun spec in the book'. Bless her little heart, because all five guys suddenly agreed it was a 75 Datsun. It still failed, but at least they had it identified correctly.

that seriously sucks... i went to re-tag my chevelle in nevada and had a similar problem, they ran the VIN and the genious at the inspection kept telling me the car was a 1980 Mustang... then he started looking for the OBDII port, it kept california plates and now sits in my driveway getting ready to be a donor for a datsun swap, save me finding a clean base :bonk:
