Will Edelbrock Victor Jr. Heads pass smog? Or are they too big? That's all I'm asking. Thanks

Victor Jr. arent those 2.05 or 2.08 valves. ive got a set of those on my pro street nova motor and they are 2.08's. Im not the best at this ford stuff but i think victor jr. are a bit big. however if you got run em smog is only every two years and im sure $200 and the right person things might work out for passing smog
good luck

Yeah I could cheat smog, I have my connections, we all do, but I'm trying to stay smog legal anyway. They are 2.05 intake and 1.6 exhaust btw

They don't have the smog holes in the back of the head so that is a big no

...see what you do is, buy another fox body and keep that stock. when your "won't pass smog car" comes up for renewal, take the stocker in its place.

Vic Jr's might pass the tailpipe test but will not pass a visual inspection because they do not have a CARB EO#. Appearently many smog techs ignore this kinda stuff even without bribes but if they are doing it right, you would fail your visual inspection. Hope this helps.

Does that REALLY Work? Don't they check the VIN and Plates (Which can be swapped) before they insert the sniffer?

Ive known a couple people that have done this. So far no one I know has gotten caught. They also just happen to have more than one mustang. Its not like they went and got another one because they couldnt pass smog. In all seriousness -sell me your heads, I'll give you some beautiful E7's, or anny-up and pay the couple hundred bucks for illegal smog. Or go buy a 65-68 stang. No smog issues!

Yes they are supposed to check the plates and the vin on the car but I wouldnt be surprised if some smog techs do not do this. Its easier for them to just scan the bar code on your registration letter to get the vin and license, and not get the info off the actual car. Guess its worth a shot, if you got caught guess you could say, "Oh sorry I've got sooo many Mustangs its hard to keep track of them" hehe.
