'78 Dodge Smog stuff

Ok,  even though my title says '75 the VIN comes up as a '78.
THis would make sense as the sticker on the windshield has a number like
34556-77 with the 77 numbers being larger.   I would guess this is the year
it was made, then sold in '78.  
No I know the sticker does not say CATALYST on it so this means it
never had Cat converters on it, Correct?  
I have books and all the Catalytic stickers would say CATALYST.  
Except there is no diagram.   I guess the number of the sticker
corresponded to a diagram in a service manual.  
Since I don't have 'this' manual,  I'm trying to redo a smog set up
w/o info...... just a bunch of differnet pictures and such.  

I have the parts for a smog pump to put on it, and I can if they say
It needs it for smog test here.   Well, most of the parts.  

Does anyone have a '78 ?   What does yours have?  
Does it have a Smog pump w/ a second injector farther down the
exhaust pipes?     All the info I have just has the injected lines at the
rear of the exhaust mainfolds,  and only farther back if it had
Cataylic converters on it.  

But I'm fairly sure I con't have to have cats.

Any info appreciated.
