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

Pursuant to the authority vested in the undersigned by Sections 39515 and
39516 of the Health and Safety Code and Executive Order G—45—9;

IT IS ORDERED AND RESOLVED:   That the installation of the TRC—1 Timing
Retard Controller, with a max. ignition retard of 20 degrees, manufactured
by Crane Cams, Inc. of 530 Fentress Blvd., Daytona Beach, Florida 32114 has
been found not to reduce the effectiveness of the applicable vehicle
pollution control system and, therefore, is exempt from the prohibitions of
Section 27156 of the Vehicle Code for all 1995 and older vehicles with an
inductive ignition system, excluding those vehicles which are equipped with
an On—Board—Diagnostic II (OBD II) system.

This Executive Order is valid provided that installation instructions for
these TRC—1 Timing Retard Controllers will not recommend tuning the vehicle
to specifications different from those submitted by the vehicle
manufacturer.

Changes made to the design or operating conditions of the TRC—1 Timing
Retard Controller, as exempt by the Air Resources Board, which adversely
affect the performance of a vehicle‘s pollution control system shall
invalidate this Executive Order.

Marketing of these TRC—1 Timing Retard Controllers using any identification
other than that shown in this Executive Order or marketing of these TRC—1
Timing Retard Controllers for an application other than those listed in this
Executive Order shall be prohibited unless prior approval is obtained from
the Air Resources Board.

This Executive Order does not constitute any opinion as to the effect the
use of the camshaft may have on any warranty either expressed or implied by
the vehicle manufacturer.

THIS EXECUTIVE ORDER DOES NOT CONSTITUTE A CERTIFICATION, ACCREDITATION,
APPROVAL, OR ANY OTHER TYPE OF ENDORSEMENT BY THE AIR RESOURCES BOARD OF
CLAIMS OF THE APPLICANT CONCERNING ANTI—POLLUTION BENEFITS OR ANY ALLEGED
BENEFITS OF CRANE CAMS‘ TRC—1 TIMING RETARD CONTROLLER.

No claim of any kind, such as "Approved by the Air Resources Board" may be
made with respect to the action taken herein in any advertising or other
oral or written communication.
