I think we all hope that's the case before the 2010's require SMOG. I know erk5000 had to get one because he came as a military transfer from out of state. Good to see he passed with all he has on his car. If its OBD, then it's LT, HF cats for me!

Thanks for the shop info, erk!
My question is, what smog inspection place is going to crawl under this already low car and look at the cats, and also, how will they know if they have been moved from their factory location? Do they have some kind of book with measurements of where cats are supposed to be located for every make and model? How could they know the difference between a factory or hi flow cat, do they look that different to throw a red flag? I have a hard time believing these smog test guys are that knowledgable about cars, maybe I'm wrong though...

Make sure you ask the person that does it if he will do it for free first if in any case it fails. I just straight up told the dude that did it the truth. That I have a tuned camaro with high flow cats and cat back exhaust. He said he would run it up and if it passes OBD then we are good. Maybe being in the military had something to do with it too ha. |

or just keep your stockers if you are that worried about it and take the 2 hours every 2 years and swap em back to pass smog if you are THAT worried or cant find someone to pass you, just another excuse to get some wrench time in...

evilbeef54, you read my mind! I was thinking about this 2 hours ago while driving. I want to put LT headers on and have little automotive experience and was thinking I should do it to get the experience for smog time.
