OK.... here is the situation. I have a 1980 fj40 that the previous owner put a 1973 chevy inline 6 (250) in. Trouble is the 1980 is not quite an antique... and I don't want to have to pay for this thing to get emissions tested when I shouldn't have to. Has anyone else ever dealt with this? I know it is odd to have an older engine than the car.... but I guess that is par for the course with this rig....
Where would I get documentation certifying that the engine in there is a 73 and not the original 80. More importantly will the DMV accept it?
I have a call into the DMV so I should hear back at some point... but you know how slow they can be.
I was just wondering if anybody had any experience with anything similar.
thanks
