For those of us that have coaches equipped with California smog systems, but have the coaches in other states that don't require smog. What would be the items that could be taken off to improve efficiency and performance?

Are there any of the smog items that might actually improve performance? I don't have the smog pump on my 1977 455 but I do have the charcoal fuel canister. And opinions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you, Scott

As Jim Hupy said, the canister is a good thing. Doesn't hurt and in addition to capturing gas vapor it lets you burn it later.

One additional point is that it is a filter for when the tanks are cooling and sucking in air. The bottom of the canister has a filter to keep crud from being sucked into the tanks. IF you don't think there is crud, look at the bottom of the canister some time.

Best Wishes,
