Default comp cams 68-232-4 in california?

has anyone run this cam in California and been able to pass smog? I am just about done with my 4.7 stroker build and want to use this cam, but want to see if anyone has passed the tailpipe test for smog.
Thanks!!

They will not give any info on if the cam will pass smog. In California it is a $30-50k permit to have a part approved for a smog controlled vehicle and some manufactures will make parts that will pass smog but not get them approved through the state. If they do this they cant tell the buyer it will pass smog or major fines show up, so in this case the cam may work but they will not give ANY info about that to avoid fines from the state. Gotta love California....
thanks for the replys

Update for anyone interested. I have installed this stroker in a yj wrangler after totalling my xj and with the 4 to 6 cy swap I had to go see the state referee for approval and smog test. I passed visual and tailpipe emissions with the above listed cam in my 4.7 stroker.
