If it has performance upgrades on it, this may increase the emissions of
hydrocarbons and/or CO so it might not pass the smog check. Also, the
deceleration valve  might be missing. Does it have a 2-bbl Weber? - if so,
this may be problematic.

If stock, the only smog thing is that vacuum deceleration valve and the
right distributor advance, which probably has 2 hoses. These engines never
had air pumps or recirculation stuff.
