exempt year is '74, you will need to smog it. the last one is right. if you swap a motor (as long as its newer then the model year of the truck) you need a ref to ok it, then you need al the factory smog equipment from the year of the motor and your good to go.. get it checked out.

In California, the vacuum lines have to be hooked up. You will fail with Weber unless it is CARB certified. Having a 22R in a truck that originally came with a 20R will require a visit to the referee as stated above. I believe the smog equipment will have to match the 22R when going to the referee, so you will need a 22R carburetor and matching smog equipment for the truck it came out of.
