The car is in Texas and I am unsure about smog issues. The car has a fully built 4.6 with a 3-core pro charger, full tube headers, x-pipe, frpp heads, and some kind of custom blower cams. Anyways I am curious if this setup is smogable, the owner says ot should pass, i just need to put on some cats. Does it sound like this car will pass? Also dos it sound like a good buy, $16,500, the cars got all that engine work, and more plus suspension, gears, cobra r wheels, with nitto drag radials, subframe conectors, ect.ect.....<br /> Thanks <br /> </font> </td></tr> <tr bgcolor="#f7f7f7"> <td valign="top" width="18%"> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> <b>st5150</b> <br /><small>Member # 51</small> </font></td> <td width="82%"> <font size="1" face="Verdana, Arial"> <img src="https://californiafords.com/ubb/posticon.gif" border="0" alt=" - " /> posted <script language="JavaScript1.3" type="text/javascript"> document.writeln(timestamp(new Date(2003,8,1,2,15,0), dfrm, tfrm, 0, 0, 0, 0)); </script><hr /> </font> <font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial"> We were fine until you listed blower cams.
