The truck I got was orginally from Cali with the smog, but I'm not required to run it in Oregon so I was just going to yank that off.

Well, trying to divorce the EFI from the smog equipment could be opening up a can of worms. A good part of what reduces smog on an electronic controlled engine *is* the EFI. The ECU is programmed to expect the smog parts are installed & functioning properly, so eliminating them may cause unexpected problems (or not, guess it depends on what you eliminate).

Yeah, we should "tread lightly" on the air as well as the trails....

Getting the Wheeling Fever
Well I do trend lightly, and I was going to remove it due to the fact that it wasn't hooked up on purchase of the vehicle when I recieved it. I may leave it attatched and then eventually reattatch it, just i've never dealt with it and would rather not try to through that into the equation of the rebuild. If you would like feel free to drive up to my house in oregon and install it for me :P
