Actually it wasn't that bad. I just followed the rules in the little booklet they have. I passed the visual/physical inspection on the first try. Unfortunately it wasn't running right at the time and failed the actual smog test a couple times.

I don't suppose that booklet is in a PDF or you can 'order' it online? If you've got it handy, what's the name?

New engine must be same year or newer than vehicle 2. Must be from same class of vehicle (i.e. No semi truck motors) 3. Engine must retain all emissions equipment from the donor vehicle. Dallas

looks good. Got any pics of the roof job. I am thinking of chopping part of my roof but the way you have yours looks a little better than what I was thinking.

Dont have any pics handy, but it was pretty simple. I just started at the front edge of the sunroof opening and cut straight across until I hit the doors. Everything behind and below that point was removed.
