well I got pulled over by a CHP on monday and he dinged me for everything and took pictures of everything, heres a list of my mods: 347 stroker low compression edelbrock performers vortech s-trim bbk 70mm tb w/egr trick flow track heat 1" phenolic spacer bbk longtubes off road x pipe 2 chamber flows w/tailpipes open crank case breathers on both valvecovers heater lines removed (due to busted heater core) water line to egr spacer removed. upr power pipe C&L 80mm mass air 42lb injectors SCT tune
I know the bbk tb is carb legal along with the vortech, but is the track heat intake carb legal? it has egr hook up. Also he told me the ref will pull a spark plug and check the bore and stroke of the motor some how, is this true? will the tune pass smog? Please chime in with any info if you have been in this position or have any knowledge. any info will be greatly appreciated. Also how much am I looking to pay in fines? Thanks! and he said my 3 inch cowl hood was illegal too

They're probably the most disliked in law enforcement lol. What was their reason for pulling you over?? And where did they pull you over? CHP has been all over the place lately.

You are just gonna need to put stock midpipe on stock air cleaner on any vacuum lines/hoses. You have 2 chances to pass, if you dont pass the first time, ask him/her everything you will need to pass the 2nd time. I went through that a while back, ref was actually a cool guy, be cool to them and they will be cool with you, they do check everything,but he didnt pull my spark plugs for anything.

Did he tell you DO NOT drive the car, and if he catches you on the road before fixing your car he will have it towed and be written up for dis-obeying a law enforcement officer.

They can't figure bore and stroke but they can get the cubic inches. We had one at the track to check for cheating, catch the guys running 383's. We had a board 400 small block and it clearly showed we had a 406.

What city did this occur in?
Wow, took pictures huh?
Did you do something to get him to pull you or did he just pull you on the suspicion of mods?
This is a rarity, too bad too got nailed.

you can do that? what if all the shit is 50 state legal?
i know a guy (my dads friend) who was drunk driving, pulled over to sleep, a cop knocked on his window and told him he had to keep going and couldnt sleep there, 6 blocks away SAME COP busts him for drunk driving.
i carry a book with all the laws about cars in it. tint is legal but only to a certain percent. cowel hoods are legal.. they dont obstruct anything. if you can see the top of your cowel then its not in the way.
do you have long tubes? shorties are legal, some aftermarket cats are legal but my offroad cats pass the sniffer. open breathers are a no no. they cant take stuff off your car. they can look at it, but they cant pop the hood themselves let alone pull your plugs.
you have to have the car inspected? by who? a cop tried to nail me for my tires being too wide and not enough tread.. the tire had 95% tread and was a full on street tire. some cops are just bitches.

Not true, you can't have ANY tint on the front door windows.

If an officer asks you to pop the hood you have to pop it otherwise you can be towed right then and there, also, your mods include long tube headers and an off road x pipe, both highly illegal in CA, so you are kinda asking to be pulled over. I don't like it any more then you do I'm actually dealing with a situation myself right now but law is law CA just sucks which is sad because this is where the whole car and cruising culture originated.
