The new Chev crate engine is advertised as 50 state compliant for emissions, with the necessary hardware and software. A possible alternative, subject to the individual states accepting the engine and emissions package ?

From a previous posting:

" From the GM LS3 announcement at the SEMA Show. Not sure if there is a manual transmission version, but one of the comments specifically mentions for automatic transmissions. MSRP is $9,375. Web site contains a search feature to find dealers by zip code along with any discounted prices. Appears the configuration is more readily adapted to Rods, 55 Chev used as an example, than a Cobra.
