Default Smog pump on a 1972 LT1??????

I am about to take possession of a 1972 Lt1. This vehicle is highly documented, original bill of sale, tank sticker, Protect O Plate, etc. Somewhere along the way, the original exhaust manifolds were removed and headers were installed. The original exhaust manifolds are coming with the car. The owner says he also has a Smog Pump that goes with it. Would a 1972 LT1 have a smog pump? The engine code is CKY.
Thanks.

Yes it definitly does have a smog pump.
An original pump in good shape and all the hardware is quite expensive.

Thanks so much for the reply and the information. There were a few changes made to this LT1 over the years, but fortunately, all the original parts were saved.

Unfortunately, I can not keep the car, and was hoping I would have it in time to take to Carlisle, but I am not going to make it. So, if anyone is looking for an excellent, highly documented 1972 LT1, I will most likely be tossing it up on Ebay soon.

Let me know when you plan on putting the LT-1 up for sale and I can let everyone in the local Frederick Corvette club know about it.

We're having our annual Westridge Vette show on September 8, so you could bring it there and may well find a buyer there.

Roughrider,

Thanks so much. I hope to make the Westridge show, if not with the Lt1, then with my 70 BB, but it is a little rough around the edges yet.
