I'm just about to do a B18C5 swap in a Honda Del Sol that originally had a D15B in it (or at least that is what it has now and it passed a few months ago).

What will this do to my smog test? Will I be screwed? Do I need to tell them what my actual engine is or will they figure it out?

Anyone have any "contacts" that can help a car pass? In Oshawa/Toronto area...?

Thanks
M

 

UPDATE: I found a guy that got the car classified as a hotrod. You can do this if your engine was not available in that car. In my case that was the situation. I think it increases the tollerance, but the bottom line is that I passed... he said I would have passed anyway, but for those of you that are concerned it's worth pushing the issue. As it turns out there is part of their guide that has info and dude fessed up that he was hesitant as he's never done it before and didn't know. Perseverance is the key.

 

Way to dig this thread from the dead. OP

 

Way to post a bunch of junk just to get your post count high.

 

I don't know if you are stupid, or just rude... or maybe both?

The point of a forum is to have ANSWERS not just questions. I am doing research on something right now and my #1 pet peeve is that so many threads are not answered. People start off asking for help, eventually get it but don't post back a response. This way, now when people find this thread they won't think "oh too bad he never posted the answer"... now when they read this thread they'll think "oh, cool, good to know that..."

...and now with your contribution they'll also think "That TEGGYRR guy is an idiot"

...anything else to add smart-guy?

 

It was his thread. At least he came back to update it. Many people never do.

 

I hate digging through old threads that dont have an answer to the problem!!
