N.H. Emissions

[Captainmelo]

I'm considering a Mk4 complete kit. I really like the looks of the new coyote set up. I'm a little concerned/confused about New Hampshires emissions requirements and OBD testing. Do any of you know where these vehicles fit in. Would love some input from any of you who have been through the process. Thanks

Captainmelo I'm from Milford NH but haven't got that far along with my build. You might try posting this on the Regional Northeast Forum here or try the other forum. I know someone from Manchester, NH sent me a private pm about the registration process he did this past fall. He goes by the screen name "dlphnstrkr" on the other forum. Try reaching him or others on the Regional Northeast Forum on the other site.

Hi Captainmelo,
From what I understand, the emissions requirements are based on the year of the engine. The regulations for emissions for NH vehicles are SAF-C 3222.1 c.2 and SAF-C 3225.01.b This is found on the Dept. of Motor Vehicle website.
Good luck,
Joe

So what's the scoop on Registration in NH? I was lead to believe our title and registration process was simple...... (from an FFR owner but that was more than a few years ago).......:(

I have my kit now and plugging away. It may be a couple of years until I am ready to register my Roadster but I need to be deciding on a direction for an engine and what that impact is on registration. I tried searching the registration process on the NH DMV site but it is kind of vague I've heard the process has changed this past year and gotten stricter so looking for more recent experiences. Do we register our FFR as a "constructed vehicle" and is emissions testing required based on the year of the engine? If I understand correctly if I go with a new Ford crate motor I would need OBD II and cats? Would I need and older motor to prevent emisson requirements and if so how old?

Any one been through the process recently? Any insight would be appreciated.:confused:

Thanks,
Tom

Tom/Captain,

Looks like you will need to rebuild a "seasoned" block pre-1996. If that is the game you have to play, so be it. I have a 6 bolt low mileage 289 I'll let go for a song. LMK if you are interested.
