So, apparently these intakes are NOT california smog legal... but up til about 2014/5.. they shipped with a piece of paper proving they were, and they have a stamp on them...

Anyone have one lying around? Lol.

Longshot, I know.

Otherwise the cobra intakes are going back on the car to smog it. Joyous.

http://www.edelbrock.com/automotive/misc/tech-center/install/3000/3821.pdf says "This manifold is intended as a direct replacement for the factory intake manifold. All emissions related factory components are to be retained and functional. The manifold is, therefore, legal for street use in all 50 states, and no C.A.R.B. E.O. number is required. Check local laws for requirements."

Use https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermkt/devices/amquery.php to find all CARB EO numbers.

Print all the documentation and show it to the shop.

I saw all that.. the issue I guess is, the intakes WERE under review.. then the EPA stepped in and wanted E.brock to pay back taxes on every single one they had already sold in order to get the 50 state... so they yanked it.

As of now, without a sticker, or any stamped EO # on the intake, the shop won't touch it. I had to have MSD, BBK, and AFR all send me shit to stick under my hood.... smfh.

I know it has all the smog shit.. and both edelbrock techs I talked to said it'll pass.. no prob.. but the shop simply won't do it, and I need it done lol.

There aren't any other places here, so i'm not sure what to do.

Just find you a shop that'll overlook things.

Use https://www.arb.ca.gov/msprog/aftermkt/devices/amquery.php to find all CARB EO number for your intake. The Executive Order shows the part number stamped on your intake. Any decent shop will accept a print out of the Executive Order listing the part number stamped on your intake.

Would work if my intake were on there, haha.

Has to be a STAR station, and only 3 of them here. 1 down. 2 to check still.

You can make a small trip and smog at any STAR station in the state.

How many of them are going to pass over my stuff?

Likely not many.

That happened to me a few years ago. I just went to the smog ref. If your car is all legit just make an appointment fith the ref. The smog check is free all you pay is the certificate.

A shop wouldn't know the intake is aftermarket if you put on a plenum cover with out the Edelbrock logo. Take it to a shop that smogs Hondas all day. They won't know what an old stock Ford engine looks like.

I had that intake. Yes you can get it to pass if you go to the ref and use the documentation that Martinna mentioned. They won't like it, but if you can PROVE that the intake is the one you say it is, they will have to consider it. You'll have to find the cast #s on the upper and lower and show the ref. I think it's 7882 or something like that. it will work, but you just have to have all the info.
