Will I pass emissions?
I am in Colorado, so not as tough as Cali.. but I am modded and have not been tuned yet.
My plate expired (out of state) so I have to pass the emissions testing before getting a new CO tag.
Mods are:
2001 Z06-
224/224. 581/581 114lsa Cam
Kooks LT Headers with HF Cats
Blackwing
Stock TI exhaust
Again, I am not tuned. Do I need to be before emission testing?
THANKS!!!

Depends on the Colorado test, if its just plug and play and you're not throwing any codes and your O2's are all reading right....you should be fine.
CT doesn't sniff unless your readiness tests aren't complete (battery or fuses were recently pulled or error codes were erased). I tuned out my rear o2s (even with OEM cats) and it passed with flying colors...
With your mods you definitely need a tune to get your tailpipe emissions in order even with cats....so if they sniff, you're likely to fail.
Just my $.02

Well, I went ahead and took it to the sniffers.
It passed!! Untuned- it took restesting a second time, but it passed!
Now I'm off to squeeze every last hp this thing at the tuner!
Thanks guys
