On August 1, CT implemented new emissions system/hardware standards for replica/kit cars ( Composite ) and the regulation contains the following requirements, inferred to be consistent with all production autos:

"Emissions controls must match the year of the engine used in the composite vehicle. Documented proof of engine year must be provided by the applicant. This information will be verified for accuracy and the presence of all required components will be verified during the inspection. "

" All Light Duty Vehicles with Gasoline Engines were equipped with the controls indicated below (Lt. Duty = below 6001 lbs GVWR till 1978 & below 8501 lbs GVWR after): "
