[Bmcu] Fw: Emissions in Salt Lake Area

[Clayton Merchant]

Jon:

I'm fairly confident, (not 100%) that the Utah testing does not require that
all of the original smog crap be left intact in order to pass the test,
unlike some other states on the west coast that shall remain nameless. It
only has to meet a certain range of emmitted particulates. I know of at
least one area garage that is helpful in making this happen. I would suggest
that the car be in top tune and leaned out as much as possible and still be
able to run prior to testing.

Hello,

 My name is Jon Zaremba.  I'm a proud owner of a 79 MG B.  There's a chance
 that i'll be moving to the Salt Lake area for work this summer.  I
 understand that my car will need to face an emissions test.  The exhaust
and
 header have been upgraded to a Peco.  There's no more catalytic converter
or
 air pump.  I doubt that it will pass the test.

 Do you know of any loopholes or ways around this?  I've researched it on
the
 DMV website.  Utah offers some classic and antique plates, but the website
 mentions that if it is a classic but less than 40 years old, it will still
 require emissions certification.

 What would you suggest I do?

 I appreciate any advice you can offer...

 Thanks,
 Jon Zaremba
