If the smog tech is a dick, you're SOL whether the number is stamped on the part or not.

I would make an attempt at locating paperwork regarding the headers. At the very least, having a legal CARB number and the papers to show for it will give you some bargaining chips at the smog shop.

I have those and they have the carb # stamped on one of the drivers side primary tubes, making them smog legal.

If they have a CARB# then they are legal. If you have any more trouble PM me, I have a friend that owns a test only shop here in Sac and will run it for you. He wont do an illegal smog but if you have the numbers for all the aftermarket parts its no problem.
