Not true.
Only solid liftered engines,(L-78 396/375HP &amp; LS-6 454/450HP),1970 chevelles had A.I.R.(SMOG) manifolds.
Their hydraulic brethren,(L-34 396/350HP &amp; LS-5 454/360HP),did not.
And their transmission type did not make a difference either. </div></div>


Rick...wouldn't the CA versions have smog regardless of the HP level??
