Need help again. I found out my car was originally from California. Any indication of smog equipment is gone. So how is the smog pump mounted to front of the engine? I've seen the parts and would like to see an engine with this installed.
Thanks, DaveB |

@Dave_Darling
Thanks Dave, great to hear from you, hope all is well. My chart is based on some factory literature which organized it that way. The cat req. for 1975 1.8s is the last line of the chart. PS, I may have misundertood your full comment. The factory called the heavy steel exhaust stubs (F-pipes) mounted to the heads on the 75-76 exhaust 'reactors' beacsue the heat they store helps burn off unburnt fuel as an emiision thing. Perhaps you wwere aware of that. |

I have a different question on the smog system. Why is the catalytic converter placed at the exhaust end between two mufflers? I am use to feeding the cats directly from the engine to get the necessary temperature for the reduction then heading into a resonator. I just don't understand why they didn't keep the earlier heat exchange design and feed into a cat then a resonator. Was it a space issue or is there a reason for this split muffler set-up? DaveB |
