I feel you, coming from Colorado i have dealt with ca style emissions my whole life.
The last year of the 5.0 was 2001 in California with a referee you would not want to put a 01 engine into an 03 it is not a legal swap
You could do a coyote, ls, Ecoboost, or even 4.6 and keep it all legal like
Or get a 98-01 ranger and stuff the 302 in there?
I am sure you know all of this alreadyemissions sucks ass!! Like we don't do enough already.. and then one forest fire or one train wreck into a river and all our careful emissions compliance is like pale in comparison to these disasters if they took the emissions program funding and put it towards fire fighting we would all be better off imo
