Default smog pump

well guys im on the verge of buying another notch but have a very stupid question...,
if the car has a complete smog pump removed.., can i just install the smog pump for visual and add the stock hpipe of course that is if the holes behind the heads arent plugged to add that metal pipe that plugs to them that connect to the hpipe, with no c/e light can it pass smog..., or does it really need the smog pump working in order all connected for it to pass.???

It is actually a air pump. Air goes into engine and exhaust to help with emissions. Doubt it would pass. Other opinions on the way....

itll pass..... or it should

do you do a dyno smog with load ???or idle sniffer ?

i put my '89 with long tubes and smog delete on the sniffer and it was really close, tech thought it would pass on load, and that was 12* timing

hopefully you can bring it in really warm and possibly knock your timing down ??? to zero hopefully LOL

thatll make the diff too
