Since I could not find a single CARB approved LS1 cam I'm assuming that your chances of passing with EITHER are directly proportional to the ignorance level of the smog tech.......

ca cams
I just did a pre-test with headers, hi flo cats, AFR heads, Haltech Trap, and 224/228 @ 114 cam. It failed the shiffer by 5 parts HC. I have confidence that I can tune that out. I would think a 224@114 with a decent tune should pass the sniffer. The key is to get a tech that doesnt look overly hard at things. The Koos headers after time turn gold and really dont stand out. The under car check he did see cats, The heads didnt get a second look, the CAI he didnt care about. Just my experience.

220/220, .581, 114lsa.... passed sniffer with room to spare.
I would think a 228 could pass with a proper tune. As other people are saying, the tuning part is the key.
LAKE COUNTY does NOT require smog checks unless ownership changes.
People get mailboxes there to register their tricked out cars.
