best experiance i ever had with emissions was in maryland.... took the 92 mustang with 4.56's to the rollers....lol had the shift light set at 3500 rpm's and luck of the draw got me a young kid to test it. he hopped in and started running through the gears. when it got to 50 mph the motor was starting to scream and he looked up at me and i gave him a dirty look, then the shift light came on and he started to flip out and ask what the light was for..... so i toldhim it was the over-rev light and he better quit trying to blow up my car....lmao! i told him to fix his dag gone equipment before he tests anybody elses vehicles....... got the pass and closed the bay for inspection.......dont think i could pull that one off twice!

I think I recall someone on this forum suggested placing a small block of wood beneath the skinny peddle (Tape, Glue Velcro, Etc) so as to prevent a "Floored" peddle and that in it's self assisted in getting the test passed. I kept the high end RPM's down.
