<VV> smog pump cars, build verification

[Sethracer at aol.com]

Just a further note - The 1969 Chevy parts book, on page 7, states the 66  
engine codes as "Special High Performance " (140) with Air Cond as RZ and  
"Special High Performance with A.I.R. as RQ - So a car built for California 
with  the Air Injection Reactor should have an RQ Engine suffix. I just 
confirmed it  in Tony Fiore's book, The Corvair Decade. It was updated in 1980 by 
Bob Helt.  The RT Suffix is listed as AIR (meaning Smog equipment) in the 
parts book. BUT  - Tony says an RT is a Corsa only 140 with A.I.R. - So 
either an RQ or an  RT is correct for your car, it seems, and if so designated, 
it originally came  with a smog pump and the other California items. The RQ 
might have been a Monza  or 500. - Seth Emerson

My original question was, "How can I tell if my 66  Corsa  140 
had the smog equipment?"  It doesn't have it  now.

"RT"   says YES!!
