[QUOTE="Travis Munday, post: 658267, member: 52914"] Yup, SST. Most states allow just about anything to be done, within broad guidelines, to be done on vehicles older then 25 years. So if you had a 1980 Mustang, you could put in a 1966 Mustang motor if you wanted too, at least here in Ga. When updating motor on late models, it gets tricky as most of the time you're not supposed to remove or modify any emission control devices, which of course you usually have to when swapping motors. So even if it was an '01 Trac with an crate 5.0 motor, you'll run into legal problems if Johnny Law wants to get technical. Something I suggest doing is bookmarking your states vehicle code. Read it, love it. Not only have I got Georgia's vehicle code bookmarked on my computer, I've got printed versions as well, although they are a bit out of date, still a good guideline. [/QUOTE]
