is it just me or is it a bit stupid california will now allow me to smog my honda with an engine swap in it, i have to swap back to stock, even though my new built engine passes the sniffer test for the original engine!!!!!!

sorry i know its not mopar, but this car has got me putting my 68 cuda on hold-

a honda that runs 12 and gets 24+mpg...

so now i have 6 hours of work to do just to turn around and have to swap it again because im not okay having 100 hp when i have a 240 hp engine sitting there ready to go!
thanks for letting me vent
