There are no other smog requirements once you have secured an SB100 number, and you don't ever have to deal with any smog or safety inspections.

Yep... As of this year you must pass the visual inspection. Smoggin as a '65 you must have a type IV PCV system. That is a closed system that requires PCV on one valve cover plumbed with appropriate hose type to the carb base and a sealed Vent on the other valve cover with appropriate hose the air cleaner base.

It appears they aren't bothering with the actual smog test anymore as the tail pipe output isn't really relevent since they will never be tested again.
