De-smog Whats ok to remove???

What items in this pic are ok to just leave off?
This rig has been desmoged, but everything was left on...

The entire EGR system from the exhaust manifold to the carb can come off as well as the air rail. I am looking for spare smog parts for '76 and up cruisers because we still need them in the Peoples Republic of California. If you want to sell any smog parts, PM me.

We have totally desmogged Landcruiser engines (I mean 1,000 percent), particularly when testing the fuel injection system. I can guarantee you the desmogged engine runs just fine and you are it's best new friend. We actually use 1/4"NPT plugs in the head at the air rail. I'd probably want to trade that massive Exhaust Manifold for a Header. I'm not sure how well a desmogged factory carb runs because I've never done it (I'm not one of the guys on this forum that buys into use of factory carbs). The factory carb may work out just find, I'm sure PinHead would have more information on that.

No need to use 1/4"NPT.............................Toyota makes the plug that actually FITS

OK then, off they go!

Do you think it would be a fair trade for my EGR system / air rail / manifold for a nice header?

If anyone would like to trade, please PM me...
