Michael,

I knew that they had some smog requirements in 1966 but as you said, any car running on all cylinders would pass. As for the SB-1578, they did reserve 100 of the 500 numbers last year just for people with pulled titles. We had a guy here with a Factory 5 that got caught in that. He went in, got one of the reserved 100 numbers and then proceded much the same as if it had been a new car except he had to pay more as he had to pay taxes on the value of the car and not what it had been declared being worth. His fault there. He had originally registered it as a 1966 but changed that to a 1964 to make sure he got rid of any smog. Most around here use 1965 and go by the body style. That was why I was asking you just what your car had to meet as I thought you had an older engine in it. But you had to meet the 1966 standard which as you said wasn't really difficult. Also SB-1578 was to allow people that purchased cars from out of state that were titled in other states to become legal in this republic as they won't recognize a lot of then other states titles.
