Rules can be interpreted differently by different staff. BTDT.....good luck.
My plan is to have Mark K test & vet the whole conversion once it's all debugged & buttoned up before I take the plunge with officialdom, last time we spoke he said there is a particular referee in San Diego that's proved knowledgeable & helpful with Porsche 3.6 conversions.

Who knows what horrors are hidden behind your BTDT, but reading some of the stories on such issues here, I appreciate your advice, and cheerfully accept the "good luck" . If I can get this muffler idea to work, everything else is retained and stock for the engine MY (including functional "check engine" light) so it "should" be a relatively painless process...
