impactred - doesn't matter what manufacturer the engine is from, as long as it's same year or newer than the chassis and retains the smog equipment from its production year.

True, but your missing one BIG ASS ISSUE. You can put a car engine in a car, you can put a car engine in a truck, but you CANNOT put a truck engine in a car according to CA laws. So no one in cali will be doing it for legal reasons. Besides, that smog law shit sucks. Even if the engine fits, if you modify ANY exhaust piping before the cat, it is NOT legal. You also cannot move the cat from the factory placement on the cars chassis. And if you make ur own intake, illegal swap.
pretty wack huh?
