California Emissions reqts. for a 1978 SC?

So I have a 1978 911 SC I bought from out of state and will be taking it in tomorrow for a smog test required for CA registration.

I have verified the visual components are hooked up correctly, have set the timing to 5* BTDC and the idle to 950 RPM. Running 91 octane fuel and will have the cat warm when I take it in.

I'm thinking about getting a pre-test because I am worried about getting labeled a 'gross polluter' if I don't pass for some reason.

Question: Does anyone know how to find the current emission standards for my car which will be applied (i.e CO, NOX, HC)?

I suppose the technician will tell me them if I fail, but I want to verify what those numbers are ahead of time. Also, any other suggestions?

Thanks.
