1976 Chevy Blazer with no catalytic converter. Will it pass smog check?

I have a 1976 Chevy Blazer which does not have any catalytic converters. Will that cause me to fail the smog inspection in California?
Answer:

According to our Emission Application Guide 1976 Chevy Blazers weighing under 6000 GVW need to be equipped with one OC Type Catalytic Converter. A missing CAT will cause a smog check failure. posted by SmogTips Support
