Engine Swaps vs Smog Laws
Hi
What's the story on various US state smog law and swapped in engines.
I see that folks swap different engines into different 4x4s and
I'm curious how that works out regarding smog laws.
I'm mainly concerned with how one can legally drive such a vehicle
on the street. Obviously it is possible to trailer/tow pretty much
anything out to the boonies for offroading, but I'm considering
something along the lines of a Jeep/Land Cruiser with a Chevy motor
and would like to be able to drive it legally on the highway as well
as offroad.
I'm in Nevada, but I'd be interested to hear about other states
as well. Any comment or pointers to websites that can help me
figure this out would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks
Claude

It varies state to state. The only person with the answers is your own DMV.

Thanks for the links, that's sorta what I thought.
This is one of the vehicles that caught my eye, but the legalities
might be a bit much...
