Question about CC's??
#1
Can anyone tell me the CC's of stock 2002 LQ4 heads? If possible the piston dish CC also?
If anyone in Cali is interested I spoke with a rep at the E.P.A and the B.A.R. I was very suprised they were very helpful. The EPA told me that going larger on the displacment will not effect me at smog time. To be sure they gave me a number of the inspector at the B.A.R. He told me as long as I dont increase the compression to far above that which came stock they would have no problem with it. I ran down a parts list and plan and he told me to come to him when its done, he will inspect it, give me a sticker for the door jam and send me to a smog check. As long as all the original emissions equipment is un-altered and it passes the sniffer, which he said it should with what I told him, I should be good to go.
Basically any aftermarket part has to have a CARB # but if the parts are internal (pistons, rods, crank etc.) then the mod is considered an "engine change". It just has to be a motor that is the same year or newer and in the same GVW class. His words about displacement were this, "If you dont want to get hit by a stick.. Dont give the them a stick".
