The difference between Europe and California may be that California offers a number of waivers (SB100) each year for kit cars, and it appears that your country in Europe does not. Those cars that receive a waiver (easy to get) do not have to comply with California's normal pollution requirements.

Every Cobra replica owner I know - or have heard - of in California has an SB100 waiver, meaning they never had to deal with the problem in the way you are trying to.

There is an England Club forum on this site. You may try to IM some of its members and see if they have any experience closer to home that may help.

Good luck.
