I had the laptop on my lap when the cops were passing by on the left lane. I guess the passanger cop told the driver cop, pointed, and they merged slowly on to our lane, cutting us off and pulled us over.

After Aram was asked for the license and registration, he was asked to pop the hood. As he was popping the hood, he said, "then engine is off a Camaro.." cop said, "What?!"

The look on both their faces was priceless. I WAS going to film that "event," but the last thing I need is for a cop to ask to take a look at my film; so much incriminating video, its not even funny.

So Aram provided the Ref. sticker, they ran the information and came out clean. It only took about 5 minutes. but we were probably there for about 15-20 minutes, they were asking about the swap and what does it run after seeing the nitrous lines (bottle wasn't hooked up..or was it? hehe).

So that was that.

Not real difficult, but takes some time.

That RX7 is very impressive. Scares me to think of what he runs like on nitrous.

It only becomes difficult when you are missing parts or have to wait for them, other than that, it's straight forward and relatively easy.

And yes, it's time consuming..

Because the cops gave them NO problem with the registration/cert. even after they told them it had a transplanted motor.
