Tx Emissions Laws

Can someone fill me in on any Tx. emissions regulations I'd have to pass at inspection. I'm planning a 383 buildup and kinda need to know.

It varies from county to county. Your best bet would be to do a net search. Here all they do is look under the car to see if you have something that looks like a cat. On my v8 s10 blazer I took the shield off a old ac cat and wrapped it around the pipe. Works every year.

I really meant what are the guidelines for getting an inspection sticker when it comes to emissions and engine swapping. In other words, would a 383 w/o smog pump pass on my 92 Bird? And would the 454 in the 87 Formula we're building pass? What about carb? Can I carb either of these legally?
