Thanks to all that have responded.

I am currently following up on a Mass-Flo system that is based on Ford parts. According to the manufacturer it is essentially a ford system, using ford components and mimicking a ford system.
Because we aren't actually tested, I have to provide supporting evidence that my vehicle should meet the requirements in principle. If I have that supporting evidence from others that have gone through the testing regime and passed, the engineer sees no reason why it should not comply "in principle"

I must say the manufacturer has been very supportive thus far while I try and strengthen my case for submission. I just need some Californian assistance from anyone running a Mass-Flo with a Ford 302 that is compliant. I'm led to believe that their compliance is more difficult than ours, so it should be OK.

I think that the whole procedure here is simply a backside covering exercise, and that if possible the engineer will let it go through as long as the submission is reasonable. Supporting documentation is the key.

Worse case scenario is the Factory manifold and EFI, paint the heads.....

Andrew429 - Having come to the realisation that the dual quad impco's aren't going to fit I've decided to get my boot space back. That's the clincher, if I can get this case together for the Mass-Flo system and get it approved I will be extremely happy. None of this is set in concrete. I may end up going back to gas....time will tell
