No smog tests or inspections in Oklahoma anymore.
I really wish they would bring back inspections. Far too many
morons out there with excessively low tires, bald tires, broken lamps, etc.
I swear the average driver these days is incapable of maintaining their
vehicles.

Re: Engine Swaps vs Smog Laws
Most states don't have a problem swapping an engine into a vehicle, so
long as the engine is not any older than the vehicle is. So you could
swap a 2000 engine into a 1997 vehicle but not a 1997 engine into a 2000
vehicle.
