The information contained in this publication is presented without any warranty. All the risk for its use is entirely

Legal and Emissions Information
This publication is intended to provide information about the ZZ454/440 engine and related components. This
manual also describes procedures and modifications that may be useful during the installation of an ZZ454/440
engine. It is not intended to replace the comprehensive service manuals and parts catalogs which cover General
Motors engines and components. Rather, it is designed to provide supplemental information in areas of interest
to “do-it-yourself” enthusiasts and mechanics.
This publication pertains to engines and vehicles which are used off the public highways except where
specifically noted otherwise. Federal law restricts the removal of any part of a federally required emission control
system on motor vehicles. Further, many states have enacted laws which prohibit tampering with or modifying
any required emission or noise control system. Vehicles which are not operated on public highways are generally
exempt from most regulations, as are some special interest and pre-emission vehicles. The reader is strongly
urged to check all applicable local and state laws.
Many of the parts described or listed in this manual are merchandised for off-highway application only, and are
tagged with the “Special Parts Notice” reproduced here:
Special Parts Notice
This part has been specifically designed for Off-Highway application only. Since the installation of this part may
either impair your vehicle’s emission control performance or be uncertified under current Motor Vehicle Safety
Standards, it should not be installed in a vehicle used on any street or highway. Additionally, any such application
could adversely affect the warranty coverage of such an on-street or highway vehicle.
