Year of engine has nothing to do with Ca. smog requirements. Must meet smog regulations for the YEAR of COMPLETION. So, built in 2004, must meet 2004 smog regs, or get SB100 exemption.

Randy is correct for pre-2008 smog requirements.

I can't totally agree with that statement.. My engine has no smog devices from anything later than 1969.. If it had to pass at 2004 standards I would have failed, but I didn't My cert on my firewall says 1969 and outlines the requirements for that year as what I need to have.
