Nope. Leaking rear seal and 2 cylinders too low in compression, I barely made emissions. I'm swapping a low mileage used engine in first

Once you get that new(ish) mill and the centrifugal huffer on there, make sure you have the Vortech emissions sticker visible on the rad support. Don't want the smog weenies dinging you for that.

That's interesting - I looked at what was supposedly a complete kit, used, removed from this d00d's truck. Everything looked like it had not been abused but the instructions were missing (not a big deal) and there was no label anywhere. He claimed it needed no label but my smog **** friends said it did. Vortech had no stickers to give out, saying they weren't allowed to do that. Their words? "The EO label comes with the kit."

Maybe he swapped out blowers for a bigger one, not realizing where the EO sticker existed. Too bad, too. It pops up here on CL every once in a while. He wants $3,000 for the kit. Kinda high but well, whatcha gonna do?

The EO Label should be clear as day. I'd be worried if it wasn't. Maybe an early V-1, not a V-2
