19257230 and 192572341995 and older passenger cars and light duty truck 1 vehiclesThe LS3-6.2L V8 E-ROD Kit is a complete engine and emission control package designed to change engines from all 1995 and older passenger cars and light duty truck 1. The kit is derived from a certified 2011 Camaro LS3 engine (test group BGMXV06.2089) but with modifications to the original emission control module (ECM) calibration, exhaust system, evaporative system, and air intake system. The main components of the kit with their corresponding part numbers are listed in Attachment A. Installation of the LS3-6.2L V8 E-ROD Kit requires complete removal of the stock pre-1996 model year engine, including its exhaust and evaporative emission control system. The stock fuel tank, hoses and fuel pump are retained but needs to be reconfigured to meet the installation requirements of the LS3-6.2L V8 E-ROD Kit. The kit is equipped with a fully functioning on-board diagnostic II (OBD II) except for the evaporative system checks. The stock vehicle check engine light is retained or needs to be added for older vehicles that were not originally equipped with a check engine light in the dashboard. Exhaust system, catalytic converter and oxygen sensor must be installed in the location/orientation as prescribed in the installation instructions provided with the kit.

Pursuant to the authority vested in the Air Resources Board by Section 27156 ofthe
Vehicle Code; and                                                                  ,

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Section 39515 and Section 39516
of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—02—003;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED: That the installation of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit,
manufactured and marketed by General Motors LLC, 3300 GM Road, Milford, Michigan
48380, has been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the applicable vehicle pollution
control systems and, therefore, is exempt from the prohibitions of Section 27156 of the
Vehicle Code for all 1995 and older passenger cars and light duty truck 1 vehicles.

 The LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit is a complete engine and emission control package
 designed to change engines from all 1995 and older passenger cars and light duty
 truck 1 vehicles. The kit is derived from a certified 2011 Camaro LS3 engine (test group
©BGMXVO6.2089) but with modifications to the original emission control module (ECM)
calibration, exhaust system, evaporative system, and air intake system. The main
components of the kit with their correspondingpart numbers are listed in Attachment A.
 Installation of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit requires complete removal of the stock
pre—1998 model year engine, including its exhaust and evaporative emission control
system. The stock fuel tank, hoses and fuel pump are retained but need to be _
reconfigured to meét the installation requirements of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit. The kit
is equipped with a fully functioning on—board diagnostic II (OBD II) system except for the
evaporative system checks. The stock vehicle check engine light is retained or needs to
be added for older vehicles that were not originally equipped with a check engine light in
the dashboard. Exhaust system, catalytic converters and oxygen sensors must be
installed in the location/orientation as prescribed in the installation instructions provided
with the kit.

 Installation of any modified or add—on parts to this engine package shall be prohibited
 unless prior approval is obtained from the Air Resources Board.       |

This Executive Order is valid provided that the installation instructions for the LS3—6.2L
V8 E—ROD Kit will not recommend tuning the vehicle to specifications different from
those of the kit manufacturer.

 Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit, as
 exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely affect the performance of the
 vehicle‘s pollution control system shall invalidate this Executive Order.

 Marketing of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit using any identification other than that shown in
 this Executive Order or marketing of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit for an application other
 than those listed in this Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is
 obtained from the Air Resources Board. Exemption of the LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit shall


                                                2.


not be construed as an exemption to sell, offer for sale, or advertise any component of the
LS3—6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit as an individual device.

This Executive Order is granted based on submitted emission test data generated on a 2004
model year Pontiac GTO with an automatic transmission, modified with the LS3—6.2L V8
E—ROD Kit with aged components. Test results showed that emission levels, with the LS3—
6.2L V8 E—ROD Kit installed, met passenger car Low Emission Vehicle II Ultra Low Emission
Vehicle (LEV II ULEV) emission standards when tested using the Cold—Start CVS—75 Federal
Test Procedure (FTP) test cycle and the Supplemental Federal Test Procedure (SFTP) test
cycle. Similar test results are expected when tested on the vehicles covered in this Executive
Order. Results from emissions testing conducted by General Motors are shown below (in
grams per mile).
