Byron:

Recent history of CT Emissions max standards based upon year registered:

2000: HC 484, CO 5.09
2005: HC 800, CO 4.00
2006: HC 220, CO 1.20
2007: HC 220, CO 1.20

In CT the year of first registration in the state becomes the Model year, called a Composite, i.e. kit car, replica. While all is never fair, you can see how the Composite emission standards have changed from 2000 to 2007 even though the identical engines are being used. I am registered as a 2000, but now have to conform to the 2005 standard: HC 800, CO 4.00

Any thoughts regarding my specific engine:

351W .030 over
Edlebrock Performer Intake
Holly 600 carb
9.5 Compression, 1.94 intake
Ford GT heads
MSD 6A Ignition
MSD Distributor
Cam: I do not have the specs, not radical, from the old days, probably a 3/4 race cam.

Used for normal street driving only, aggressive performance not required.

............thanks for the guidance

Don
