I don't get it

Surely the emissions rules for new trucks are tied into the vin of that new truck?

How would the regulations suddenly not appy if a new truck is retrofitted with an old engine.

Unless they also retrofit the old vin from that old truck along with it.
But isn't that VIN fraud at that point?


It's like getting a new 991
You won't get that thing through smog by retrofitting it with a 69 2.2 T engine..

You'de have to weld in the vin from a 69 T to the chassis, but it really would not fly if you roll up with a 991 and claim it's an early T
