mine passed at a Test Only with my .600 lift cam and a 347. It just looked almost stock. It just depends on how cool the tech is. My visual, functional and tailpipe emissions were fine. The only sign was my idle. good luck [Big Grin]

Since I see these questions a lot, here is my answer to his PM. his cam is only .542 lift.

You are dyno smog right? It really doesn't matter how big your cam is anymore since they don't do idle tests with the dynos. The idle test is where the HCs and CO would go up due to the overlap in the cam. Hence no idle test no worries. A larger cam with the overlap actually has a natural EGR effect. If your cats, O2s and Air injection are fine, you will pass with no problem. My cam is substantially larger than yours and It wasn't even close for me.

CA SMOG is easy if you have all the visual and what I spoke about above.
