I recently rang vicroads to ask whether i would need an engineers cert to put an L20
in my 1600 and i was told technically you do but considering the age of the engine and
the slight power increase you can get away with it. She said it just depends on the
day when you take the car in to get the engine number changed, they might not mention
a certificate, or they might tell you that you need one.
I will be taking my 1600 in soon to get the engine no. changed so hopefully they let
me get away with it.
Thanks, Mark.

Most
of the L20B engines in 1600 were fitted when the rule was +25% capacity - you
will only have a problem if you let your rego expire for whatever the period is
these day that you have to hand your plates in etc (3 months?, something like
that) - bad, bad move this. Pay for 3 months or something to avoid a clean start
as you are then subject to the rules of the day. Most engine swap rules are not
retrospective, thankfully.

Errol,
waddyamean illegal engines in our 1600's (-;, good job they've not figured
a way of measuring HP at rego yet - that just wouldn't make my
day.
What about
the NSW guys running L20B's in 1600's and Stanza's? RTA says >15% increase
in capacity needs a certificate, anyone gone through (or preferably around)
this process? How do you get through rego with the different engine number?
Cheers, Jim.
