Hey Darrell,
I'm not sure about every state, so there's a good chance I'm wrong, but
I've always understood this to be the opposite.. A 74 motor in a 63
would have to meet the specs (none) for 63, the year of the vehicle's
manufacture. Just as a 63 motor in a 74 car would have to meet 74
standards. It's the year the car was manufactured, not the motor.
Then again, with some of the stuff you hear about California, I'd
believe almost anything..
