Who says there aren't facilities in QLD capable of performing this test. It is after all just a test sequence performed on a dyno with the required gas analysis equipment.
Anyway now it's up to QLD transport to Prove it doesn't and they only have the ability to do a 4 gas analysis road side and it will pass that with flying colours regardless what tune I dial into it.
A 1965 engine is hardly a 1965 engine when it no longer has carbs and now has electronic ignition EFI and huge CATS.
Unless I'm mistaken all modern engines are a basic derivative of engines that are donkeys old LS chevs windors clevelands all made pre 70's and are the basic engine platform right through to the early mid 2000.
The year the engine was originally manufactured has little regard for its configured and tuned state when compared to a say 1971 falcon engine versus a 2005 TS falcon with last of the 5.8 Windsor based on the same block and reciprocating assembly.
