NYS inspection and computer changes?

why? that’s like putting a gtp motor in a gt, or u could’ve done a top end swap and added a blower to the gt, how could u tell the difference? and how do u pass custom cars then? it doesn’t matter what motor is in the car as long as the safety/emissions correspond w/ the rules/regulations for the particular year.

I agree the engine in there is still a Saturn engine for the same year car just the SL2 not the SL1. Everything in the swap fit perfect. I just had to splice the wiring harness for a sensor hook up, nothing major.

if you put an engine that didn’t belong in the car it shouldnt pass inspection. eg. putting a 2003 cobra engine in a 96 mustang gt. An inspection station should deny the inspection.

umm, no. If you are putting a newer motor into an older car and all the emissions are hooked up it is 100% legal
