3G Hemi fuel: EFI vs Carb

That's crazy....

In Michigan, we are not subjected to any inspections whether for safety or smog/emissions. I can title my car with historic, regular or vanity plates and they don't care. I can put a new engine, or an old engine in and.....you guessed it, they don't care.

Now, if you put a new engine in, you can't use historic plates correct? And if you're not using historic plates, you have to pay $2000 for a "modern vehicle tax?" So, if you drove a modern vehicle over there, would you still have to pay the tax?

First, I don't wanna crah the thread.
But it is an interesting question. Put the Hemi in with injection means to pass the technical inspection every 2 years. Means to pass emission controls every 2 years (which are strict - need the catalytic converter on the car!!), means to make safety stuff modern like chassis and brakes. This is more than just a engine swap job. And tax is still high because taxes are measured on the engine displacement. Might be around 1000usd.
