In the October 1991 Musclecar Classics magazine is a COPO automatic Chevelle chassis. The engine has the AIR setup.

I'm told both auto's and 4 speed came with the smog set up. Some experts will argue this. I'm not sure, but I always found it interesting that on any Canadian build sheet I've seen, none have the smog pump boxes filled with a code of any sort.

Order the whole set-up from Ron Normann...they re-pop the correct manifolds too. Sounds good when they fart and pop with smog !

I firmly believe that they did get Smog setup from factory.Regardless of where shipped.
Peter is right about no codes in smog boxes,but I always see box 36 or 37 showing YE. That is a Smog pump belt code.

Box 37 has belt coded YE for groove 2. Box 38 has belt coded HJ for groove 3. This applies to a 4 speed COPO car. These should show up on all build sheets but I have seen a 4 speed build sheet not showing the HJ code. Go figure.

Default Re: Copo Automatics... all had pollution

Hi Ted....This was a bone of contention for years with L88 Vettes. With these cars that stuff was the first thing removed along with the exhaust manifolds. After a lot of research it was found that cars delivered to Canada came with the same poll. equip. as the USA, except for the California cars. Hope that helps [img]/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/scholar.gif[/img] <font color="blue"> </font>
