The thing that most affects emissions is the LSA of the cam followed closely by the duration amounts. That is a pretty big cam for a 360 CID motor. As long as you have a good set of cats on it, it can be tuned to pass. Plus there are little tricks that can help if you are close. A bottle of rubbing alcohol in the gas might help

well it really depends on what your state does for OBD2 emissions. Illinois just checks the gas cap and then plugs a computer in the car and runs the emmsions and checks for codes. As long as the Check engine light is not on, you are good. My buddy passed with a 01 WS6 with a G5x3 cam and no cats on it. I passed with just lt's , no cats without it being tuned and passed. It stunk up the bay area but nobody really cares there. What do you expect when you have people getting paid minimum wage for the state???? LOL!!!
