yea im looking into buying a pair of pacesetter long tubes for my T/A which is from california.. and the LTs i want dont have the EGR fittings.. will this work for my car that has all the california emissions stuff?

 

Im in CA also and i ran into the same problem you know we have to have CARB #'s for engine mods.Unfortunatly i couldnt find a set of LT with a CARB# Pacesetter does make a set of mid-tubes with a CARB# and thats what im running.Belive me i wanted T's but dont want to get dinged by smog ****'s

 

i live in a small town in New Mexico tho we dont have to get emissions testing over here.. i just bought the car from California.. all the headers need todo is work.. so will theY?

 

The headers will bolt on.... there is no difference in the exhaust port location in the heads because the heads are all dimensionally the same. There is no extra equipment on the "CA Emissions" cars that would interfere with the header routing. All the "CA Emissions" stuff is taken care of in the computer, not on the engine. You will obviously need a new exhaust system from the long tube collectors on back.

 

Get some Jet Hots with smog fittings...that way you can delete the stuff if you want to...but then again...I dont have to pass emissions

 

thanks

 

What is the difference in the computers???

 

i imagine you'd need egr block off plates and something to plug the AIR stuff. then get the egr and air tuned out of the computer.

 

If I bought Non emmisons LTs and deleted all my emmisions stuff, would it be hard or expensive to replace it all if my emmisions testing was changed?

Or should I just buy the smog lt's and tune out all my emmisions stuff?
I'd be running an ORY

 

It makes no difference. I live in california and Im running non-emission LT's (Hooker Super Comps) and they work fine. There is no difference in the computers, just in the tune and it still wont affect anything. You will be fine with the non-emission headers, you just may want to pull your AIR pump, which is about a 10 minute job.
