TN INspections
Some help pls ....
Will be moving to Nasville from Dallas. Could you check the list of mods in my signature below and tell me if you think I might have problems passing emmissions or saftey inspections in TN?
I have repeatedly passed inspections here in Texas. Many thanks!

If I'm not mistaken, the only areas that have emissions testing are Memphis and Nashville. Not sure about the surrounding counties. We don't have any inspections in East Tennessee.

I live near Nashville (Spring Hill) and all we have is the ALDL check, look for cats and check gas cap.

Visual inspection for catalytic converters (with a mirror) at the smog test is all there is. 
This is done at Davidson County (Nashville) and surrounding counties.
If you don't have catalytic converters you will have to get them.
