    both vehicles have been out of circulation for a while. the vh has been deregistered since october 05 and the vk has been sitting on someones block for goodness knows how long.

    polution gear shouldn't be too much of an issue. some hoses and a cannister!!

    after reading the thread on blue and black motors, i might just use the black motor as a base and build on from it.

    By the book it's not legal. If the car ever goes to your roads authority chances are you will get caught.
