    or you can run a weber and put the stock back on to pass smog(and all the vacuum lines....), but if you get pulled over and inspected (which will especially happen with a nice flashy show truck) you will get nailed. i'm not completely positive on cali's smog laws but i'd imagine they're worse than az. in az if a car is older than 5 years it needs smog checked, unless you live outside the phoenix metro area.

    The 1st one is the RE so you have all the electrical for the fuel injection, plus it looks like he has fuel purifier (even better than a fuel filter). He could also have a/c, the others don't. They removed everything that they didn't need.

    Does yours have a/c?

    So you'll have more wires for that. Alot of the guys with the full show trucks take out the a/c, sometimes power steering, etc for that same reason, to clean up the enigne bay. Thats why they look so wireless.

    yeah, ya know on newer cars as multiple settings to set how fast or often. SR5 models have it. You can swap 'em out. So I've been told.

    Yes, the are removable
