That I know of, there is not any particular difference in the engine that makes it California vs Fedral, except that the CA one uses a longer lasting timing belt (I recomend changing that anyway, if you do not know when it was last done on the engine you have.

SQ93 Posted January 6, 2006 Share Posted January 6, 2006 You may want to inquire at the DMV about what regs they might have for replacement engines in terms of passing smog. They might even have some answers on their web site: http://www.dmv.ca.gov/ Ok after searching for a good time i need to ask this.
