And in fact, the motor we just built might prove that we've won the battle entirely.
We may have stumbled in the beginning of the smog era, fearing what was then unknown territory. What were they thinking anyway? That by policing a couple hot rods and forcing us to install some ugly and lame exhaust recirculation systems that they could keep us down? Did they believe even for a second that by implementing the now infamous 'Smog Check' program back in 1982 that it'd keep us high-performance hard heads off the road? No way. Or, at least, it's supposed to be the reasoning behind our tedious smog laws.
