Being in California, I am limited to what I can do to an engine because of smog rules. On one of my Sammies, I put on the Weber carb and a Thorley header and was amazed at the power out of the 1.3L. It passed the smog sniff test, but failed when the tech opened the hood (the visual test). What a crock of crap! If the vehicle isn't spewing out pollution, who should care that there are a few aftermarket parts under the hood. I think the 1.3 is capable of more than its allowed to do.
