That's not what happened to me with my 77 Spitfire. I had to switch back
from the Weber to the SU to pass my smog test. It sniffed clean, but they
said I couldn't have the carb on it. Had to swap back to stock to get
through the visual inspection.... but that leaves the car with so little
acceleration that it is scary as hell merging onto the freeways around here.

Bob. The smog station personnel will have no idea what was required or
original on your car anymore, I know they didn't and don't for the TR. That
arcane info is just not in their data banks. If you meet the emissions
standards you will pass. Talking from personal experience.
