That's how we have Nick's registered. He called Weld County DMV to set it up.
1982 and newer has to go to Air Care Colorado [Enviro Test]. I'm not sure but I think the $400.00 does not include missing components. It must have the equipment it came with or equipment that is C.A.R.B compliant.
Yeah we have a similar one here limit $500
Sorry for the delay, I snapped a bunch of photos. I probably took more than was needed but here are all of them.
First and foremost, the radiator support sticker and the glove box equipment list:
...and now a bunch of various engine bay shots:

the manual choke is a no, I don't see a provision for egr. the evap canister is there, need vacuum line/s from carb. vac advance will need a thermal vacuun switch in the cooling system near t stat.
the whole air injection system is missing.
the hot air stove on exhaust manifold is there.
a lot of work is needed to make this pass visual.

First pic rad support sticker says it should have 2. I should have an extra laying around, I might even have a stock intake as well.
I have the stock intake sitting on the floor in my garage. It came with the truck. It would be a shame if I couldn't use this fancy new intake though.
Sorry, what do you mean by the manual choke is a no? It would be nice if I did not need an EGR - perhaps I could use the aftermarket intake then?
The original setup would have had two smog pumps, two charcoal canisters and a spark arrestor in the air cleaner. I have most of the pieces, but not the lines that screw into the exhaust manifolds.
Thanks man. I knew I had to get the smog pumps. I wonder where the second charcoal canister goes inside the engine bay?
This!! An a flap wheel/die grinder on the raised lettering. And not only that if you add enough hoses and a big air cleaner the "techs" at the sniffer shop would probably be clueless.I’ve painted intakes black and made a bracket for the EGR before
The other canister might be under the battery tray.
EDIT the carb probably ain't gonna fly.
I forgot this was a big block truck. The emissions equipment is the same anyway. So you are missing the air pump and pipes, but have the correct exhaust manifolds with pipe plugs. The intake and carb are wrong. No EGR. The manual choke is a negative but since the carb is wrong it really don't matter. Not sure what you have for an air cleaner, but I'm guessing it's not stock since it's got the intake and carb on it. That means you need a stock air cleaner for it too.
I'm way out of the loop on the emissions testing game since I've been in Pueblo for 17 years now. I'm certain the engine running right should pass the test for an 86 without the EGR and stock intake/carb. But what I don't know is how tight are they on the visual? I'm wondering if you were to put a stock air cleaner and pipe to the exhaust manifold and run into the test station and see if they call it out. The emissions label does not have a list of equipment on it to validate against. I'm just curious about what they refer to when an old truck like this comes in.

Thanks a ton man!
From reading your response, it seems like I'm in trouble because I have some of these aftermarket parts. Do the emissions testing folks require the equipment on the vehicle to be OEM, or is my stuff bad because it will allow too much CO / HC / NOx through?
Has to be CARB approved. They ship those with stickers if they are. You may wanna check the model numbers against the makers web site, or email them, and ask about the CARB certificate
but they probably aren’t bueno
