[DetroitMuscle]

Thanks, 73446pk. I have a question. Do you guys (the state of NY) require state inspections for vintage / classic cars?

[js29no]

YES, but it is safety only. no emissions, cost is $10.00.

[DetroitMuscle]

Thanks, our emissions check are for 1976 and newer vehicles. And no safety inspection on inspections or emissions testing on anything 1975 and older, but our emissions test is Approx. $60

Any pictures?

Thanks, I will try to get a few posted this weekend.

Ya quite A few states don't require safety inspections. after A vehicle is 25 modal years old they are no longer subject to emission requirements.

Current project. 1972 Cuda, with a 1970 TA 340 motor. Engine is coming out this weekend. Car will under go a full restoration. A 383 stroker will replace the TA engine.

What do you use to make a 383 stroker?  Or do u mean you are building a stroker out of a 383?

[DetroitMuscle]

Sorry, The new motor will be a 383 block, and by using a 440 Source stroker kit, it will be stroked to a 496.

Sounds good man!

We have a safety inspection (lights, brakes, suspension etc.) required each year. It costs $12 I believe.

Don you and 734406pk, have some nice MOPARS in the barn. Being from Detroit, I had family members that worked for Ford, GM and Chrysler. So I just grew up working on and enjoying them all. As soon I figure out this "picture posting thing" I will be sharing some build pics of the engine.

Thank You Sir! I find it simple to take a pic with my cell phone and email it to myself in a lower-res format then copy and paste the pic(s) to the c-c.com site. Works well for me.
