I agree that the emission requirements cause the engineer's to scramble but we would be in a mess if we didn't have pollution controls. As I've mentioned in the past, Los Angeles has such thick smog before catalytic converters that you could almost cut it with a knife.
You couldn't even see the houses just off of the freeway it was so bad. It's probably 90% better.
After seeing what the 'lack of' pollution controls looks like in India, I like where are are today, the pollution was awful there.
I agree 100%. I went to riverside ca NASCAR race in 1975. the air quality was awefull compared to today.I just cant imagine what the world would be like today without controls put in place
people scoffed at 1966 fords with California mandated air pumps but now we see the reasoning behind it
