simple. Swapped in the Ls1 with all the smog crap. Put the cats in the factory location. Went to the ref. Did a visual inspection and the sniffer test. Passed. Gave me a new smog sticker to stick to my car. done

Excellent! Since you have done this already. Do you know how displacement ( an increase of ci) will effect getting a smog sticker?

I've been wondering how this applies to the corvette. Which has the C6 has the LS7 427 ci optional engine which comes in the Z06. But does the larger displacement disqualify it for swapping it into a C5 (which maxed out a 5.7 liters).
Thanks in advance.

Displacement means nothing. The state doesn't care what you do or what car the new motor came out of if it's legal in the state. You can swap any new(er) motor into your car so long as all emission equipment gets swapped and goes in the correct places too. Updating is okay, back-dating is frowned upon
And I highly doubt that because you have a 2000 motor in an 89 car will make a difference. They care about the year of the car, not year of motor. Your car isn't called a 2000 Camaro now..
