When I still had the original 305 in my car it passed inspection as I expected because I didn't mess with any of the emissions stuff. I came to find out later when I was doing a 350 swap that the EGR passages in the intake were totally plugged with carbon buildup, so basically the EGR was not working. Based on that I am thinking its possible to still pass with no EGR - at least for gen 1 SBC cars, not sure about the newer LT and LS series motors though.
