You should try using an adjustable pushrod length checker.

Ok so finally got her tuned today. I'm a lil disappointed but overall happy. So after getting scolded by Rick at synergy for spending to much time online and thinking to much haha. He did a great job. Car drives great and feels good. Of course I wanted 400 rwhp but realistically thought 380 ended up getting 371/370

Not sure if this was with cutout opened or closed since I was at work and forgot to ask when I picked it up a few hrs ago after dealing with traffic and those wackos.

Anyhow here's the graph and as for passing smog he told me not to be disappointed if it didn't pass but I'm sure he tried his best to tune her for it I'm going to do a test smog at work hopefully tomorrow

Aren't there Shorty headers and high flow catted Ypipes with CARB EO numbers? While not anywhere near the power gains of long tubes, those would be worlds better than the stock stuff.
