If you are talking about Alfettas, you have an air injection pump for the
exhaust
manifold. This is on the smog check list of things to look for. It will not
pass if they
check their list, as they do in CA. Trying to get that pump mounted and
plumbed
for the twin spark would be a nightmare, I would think.
