A smog pump is mearly emmition related... it can run fine (if not better) without one but you wont pass smog.

Yeah, 83's have AIR pumps. Strictly emissions. I lost mine awhile ago, don't know what happened to it....

Wrong, you will pass emissions as long as they dont do a visual. If they just do sniffer you will pass. I know because my car passed the sniffer with no smog pump.
