If so post up please.

Thinking of the CompCam 262HR-12, but wondering, other than Crane, what's out there.

I do not have a list of CARB approved cams, but I know of only two companies. Crane and Comp Cams. Crane has the old 2032 cam which I believe is carb approved. Comp has about 4 cams that are carb approved. I have one in my 87 Monte Carlo TPI swap. I think the Comp CARB approved cams are under their "computer compatible" list of cams.

Good Luck.

We've passed CA's smog test with 226/232 camshafts. Just don't tell them what's in it.

The camshaft goes with the rest of the combo, so what are you planning?

No smog tech is pulling cams to see EO numbers, nor will they have any way to know it's cammed. If the visible parts are EOd and your numbers pass, you're good.
