Hi everyone, it's been a while!
I posted this on LS1.com, needed to try here also as I really need help.

I live in Orange County and own an F-Body that won't pass smog.
I've had a smogger up until this year who had shut down his shop.
Now I've a test only due in a few weeks and am faced with finding
a new smogger, which I have not been able to do, or sell my car...

I suppose I'm asking 2 things here.
If anyone in the OC area has a smogger that they would be kind
enough to refer to me, please please please shoot me a pm.

If anyone can suggest a good selling price for my car with the listed mods,
(click the f-quick link for a list and pics), please also send me a pm with it.

I really really appreciate everyone's help with either request.
Thanks all!

how many miles are on it?
You are best just swaping the headers out for stock manifolds and cats for smog and them removing them once you pass.

Ive got stuff you can borrow (manifolds, cats, y-pipe). let me know if you need it. Ill be living in Aliso viejo starting March 6.

its gonna be tough to find a test only station to pass you. most "smog guys" are also repair shops, they have less to loose if they get caught since they would stil have a business.
