  California 2002s had thermal reactor exhausts for both '75 (like the rest
of the US) and '76.  Also 320i for '77-'79 as best I can remember.  This
little oven at the exhaust side of the head is a stamped and welded
arrangement, not the cast iron as on your '76.  CA '76 is (short version)
same as 49 state '75.
