I've heard of it done before but I highly doubt it would, even the XE236/242 would have a much better chance in passing since its got nice fast ramp up lobes which prevents loss of compression, the cc306 is a real soft ramp up cam which at low rpm's will pass all sorts of gas through the overlap & have lots of reversion.

i pass with mine everytime. All you need is a good tune and some alcohol. You will pass with flying colors.

What state? Keep in mind, each state has its different requirements. Sometimes varying county to county.

My bone stock '95 barely passed on the rollers....

If your state does OBD2 plug-in testing (instead of a sniffer) and you have a 96-97, then you can probably get away with it with a good program that says everything is A-OK to the computer

I am hoping to pass AZ emissions with it next October. I know SnkSknr94 passed easy with the 305 after having it tuned for emissions.

Yeah, Aaron did fail a few times, but those were on his performance tune, and trying that gaurenteed to pass crap. When he used the emissions tune it passed easily the first time. So I am hoping to get lucky and barely pass
