While you do have to run a CARB legal head and intake...along with everything else required in your car...you will pass California smog. I did a magazine article a few years ago with this SB and legal bolt ons that made 410 at the flywheel.
Mark,

This still wouldn't fly. You can't smog by the block in California anymore. If you register a special construction vehicle in CA, it will have to meet all of the smog specifications/requirements for the year it is registered (i.e. catalytic converters).

The CHP website indicates that the motor is "perfect for a late model Mustang slated for daily use. Best of all, this short block is 50 state legal for emission controlled 1988-1995 Ford Mustangs originally equipped with 5.0L V8 engines!"
