I too am all for getting rid of the black smoke spewing machines out on the road today. But the fact of the matter is, for us owners who's car does run clean with or without OEM smog equipment, we should not be penalized. And by penalized I mean that we should not be required to have OEM smog equippment as a requirement to pass. My car has a catalytic converter that cleans the exhaust so well, I can practically stick my nose in the pipe and not smell a thing. But when a car rolls down the road and you can smell it a 1/4 mile behind it, or you can see the smoke before you even see the car, then it should be taken car of. All I'm trying to say is when this law goes into effect, it should aslo carry along with it something that states that any pre '84 (around there) can be checked for no visible leaks and then run on the sniff test. No visual crap, just check to make sure that there are no major exhaust leaks. This OEM setup is what's going to screw us. I don't mind having to have the car smogged every two years, just get rid of the OEM rules.
