Can't run a 455 in a 79 or 80 Firebird in this state unless you have a buddy with a smog machine who's willing to lose his BAR license to pass you under the table.

No need to remind me of why I dont live in the People's Republic. I can get rust free cars there if I want, then bring em up here and build what I like.
Dont they still have an exemption for alt fuel vehicles? That might be one way to get a 455 in a 79-81. Besides, it looks like a 350 and kinda like a 301, most smog guys wont know the difference. Also if it had a 400, you can stroke it to 496 easy, and 79 had 400s so it should be legal.

If 2 hundredths isnt a big deal , please never do any engine work for me.
