It's Official... Moving to SoCal.. - ZR-1 Net Registry Forums

Yup it's true. My company retired me out 10 days ago. At least they gave me a nice package and full retirement benefits immediately. The nice part is I can collect my pension and find another job to boot (I'm only 55). I guess that's the advantage of working for one company for 28 years. My last day is the 16th of Oct. Which means, there no reason to stay here in Chicago (other than my FBI buds) The wife is already packing, she can't wait to get out there with the kids and grand-kids, they all live in SoCal. The house is up for rent, since it makes no sense to sell it in this market. So as soon as the place rents or I find a job in Ca. were gone.

So here's the ZR-1 question to all you California guys. What am I in for in terms of emissions testing and inspection on this vintage car?(1990 ZR-1) No major mods to the engine except porting and chip. I am running headers with high-flow cats and a Corsa exhaust. Do they inspect for emissions equipment or just the out the tail pipe emissions? Luckily I saved my original exhaust manifolds and cats. I'll be living in Orange, Riverside or San Diego counties, not sure where yet.

Any job leads would be helpful too. I've done it all in retail and wholesale automotive, looking for a Dealership GM spot or Management Consulting.

I'm looking forward to starting an "FBI" chapter in SoCal and taking the "FBI" International... "Fast Boyz International".

Any input would be helpful.

TIA
Hans
