NYS Inspection stations

Does anyone know of an inspection station friendly to FFR's in Nassau County.
I need an inspection and the guy I brought it to told me I need a full safety/emission , that I need cats on a crate motor (351W). I was told by our friend in Albany that I only needed a Safety inspection.
Which is correct?
Where to go?

Thanks everyone.

How old is the car?
If it is just on the road - first inspection it gets a sniff test - no cats
Is it registered as a Custom and the year built -? (Custom 2009) when it is inspected it gets put in with this special class
My first inspection I called the tech guys in Albany and had them talk to the guy doing the inspection -
Or show up at Classic Concepts in West Babylon any Saturday morning and talk to Nick the owner or any one of the Cobra Club members for more info.

What happens after the first inspection, no sniff test?

According to Tom in Albany, the car is registered as a 2009 custom. on 2009 cars their is no sniff test first two years, after that it is required to pass a "curb idle test" this means a probe in the pipe and it must pass standards of 1979 emmissions. If their is any doubt I would call Tom in Albany to verify.

Hop that helps.
