E85 and CA smog

Anyone heard what the readings look like when your running E85 compared to regular gas? HC, NOX etc...... Just curious and nothing came up when I searched for it... TIA

It passes. Here's my car on E85 with a RRE high flow cat. Just do not tell the Smog operator that you're running E85 since its technically illegal to do E85 conversion per EPA rules... Smog machine couldn't pickup the RPM signal from my OBD II port for some reason, so the RPM's were handwritten on the sheets for reference.
