    C3 1968 Smog Assembly

    Were there any 1968 Corvette Small Blocks (327 / 300hp, 3-Speed Trasnmission) produced without the Smog Pump set-up or was every single unit produced with the Smog Pump Assembly?

    Thanks,
    Steve

    Steve-----

    I have researched this matter thoroughly in the past. ALL 1968 and 1969 Corvettes were supplied with an air injection reactor (AIR) system ("smog pump"). This applied to small blocks with base engine and 3 speed manual transmission, big blocks with ZL-1 and EVERYTHING in between. 3 speed manual transmission, 4 speed manual transmission, automatic transmission.

    It is POSSIBLE that SOME foreign-deliverd 68-69 Corvettes were not produced with the AIR pump (or the system was removed prior to delivery since the laws of those countries may not have required it). Personally, I don't believe that any foreign-delivered cars were actually built without AIR. When I see incontrovertable, hard evidence that such a car was produced (e.g. a build sheet with an AIR-delete notation), I'll modify my opinion REGARDING FOREIGN-DELIVERED CARS ONLY.
