All this California talk has me wondering what do people who move there do? What if I have a car that's legal in my state but move to California? Is there some kind of grandfather system?

On the Ex note I ordered a set of X/Mod C springs from Junior with ATS. Going to do the swap while I have everything apart for the front axle swap.

I just sold my old wheels and tires to a "local" Ex owner. He also has a 03 6.0. I told him about the site, so fingers crossed he shows up.

No, he did not bring his Ex to the selling point, he was in a work vehicle returning home from a week of training, otherwise there would have been pics.

Haven't been able to do much. Got my F650 dash mocked up and wired up. Darn weather is not cooperating with me. Looking for a dry day to get my guages installed. In my boredom I ordered FRx and HPx from Riffraff so that should be next weeks project. Come on sun! I did manage to get the CCV mod and the Ford AIS intake completed a few weeks back.

Good luck on the dash man. Mine took forever. I pieced mine together over a month so I had to remove everything about 4 times to have it finished and everything hooked up. I should have just waited until everything was ready but I am impatient.

Everything (with the exception of Grey Market Vehicles and special builds) meets either Federal or California standards. When it is smogged it has to meet the standards it was built to for it to pass.

The starter took a dive. No warning or anything, it just decided it didn't want to live anymore. I replaced it last year with an OEM one as well.
