b16 head on gsr block... can i pass the smog sniffer?
I have a EG with jdm b16 swap....its Refd and all..... what i was tryna find out is if i threw a 95 gsr bottom block in my car and still used the b16 head and b16 lsd tranny would i be able to pass smog if i told them its a gsr motor? with no aftermarket bolt ons or add ons... just b16 head and gsr bottom end... the people here dont check to see if its an actual gsr head or anything and would i have to use a gsr ecu also for smog... i just need to know if i can pass the sniffer as a gsr motor
anyone had experince tryna do this or have done it ?
thnx for any info

As long as the crank stroke is the same and the deck height isn't affected, you can try to do it. It will run very very well, but it will have major issues passing smog. We used to build similar engines in high school, I think they used to call them Frankenstein engines.

there is no reason why it wouldn't pass the tailpipe test. Visual, however, it might fail depending upon how knowledgable the smog tech is that you bring it to.
