I would at this point think that you would want to stay 95 and older as I believe emissions is not required on vehicles of this age. I know my 95 only required safety.

They're pretty lax, especially if you swap in a diesel, then all that emissions crap goes out the window. 
I had looked around for giggles when I put my LS into my 40, and there isn't much there...

No worries....I did a diesel here. Of course, my diesel is newer than my truck, but they don't seem to care, especially on a vehicle that does not plug into the computer.
Are you looking to put a diesel in your 80? Toyota or other engine?
