I don't see that stated anywhere on their page. Did I miss something? If this is a rebuild, to the same specs, just using different materials why would emissions be affected? A rebuild with larger pistons, altered timing etc could possibly, probably, affect emissions but a straight rebuild? And not only do they not take responsibility for passing the test, they state that use in a pollution control car is illegal!!! Maybe I'm missing something.
