Want to put a 253 into my 81 VH, it has a 202 at the moment, I know it's a lot of work but I have done the body up so now need to do the motor. Cheers Steve

It depends where you are, i think. I know in victoria when i converted my VH 202 to my current black 308, i put in a VK calais rack, V8 K frame, V8 diff, suspension and brakes and had no hassles. The hassles came when a float in the rochy sunk and burnt the c*#!.
in w.a you can put any size motor in up to equal weight and power of what come standard, provided you change all the rest of the bits and pieces like brakes, suspension, steering etc. to accompany the new size. you will not need an engineer to look it over.
read this up yesterday.
Thanks guys, am in Vic and plan to change the rack brakes suspension etc so should be ok then, cheers Steve
