Hey everybody,
I got a 95 GTS with a problem. I live in California. I currently am running a calibrated C&L mass air flow system which is not smog legal in California. I need to pass smog and do not have the old part. I want to buy a new air intake.I need to know which ones are legal and come with the sticker saying so. Thanks. The car has AFR 185's, Holley Systemax II, etc.

Interesting. I ran my C&L on my V6 for years in plain sight and always passed California smog. Perhaps you're going to the wrong place. If you're in the West Los Angeles area, PM me and I'll tell you where I go.

Besides, where did you get the info that the C&L isn't smog legal? It's my understanding that you can change anything that doesn't affect the amount of fuel going in the engine.
