New Qld rules

[Ashtray83]

Hey everyone I am thinking about buying an older 6 cly commodore to drive while I fix up my vs! And I was going to pull it off the road and put a v8 in after my other car is finished but I have been told new rules in Qld now you can't do the v8 conversion ?? Does anybody know the truth in this?

Whoever told you that is a moron. Generally it's allowed however brakes, suspension etc must also be upgraded to whatever the V8s have. Feel free to have a read

if the engine was an option from the factory (which it was), then no problems. Don't even need a mod plate
as long as you upgrade brakes, suspension etc to match the V8 model

Ok cool, so the vh for example came out with a 5l engine, I could put that in with no mod plate ? But if I wanted to put a ls1 it would need to be approved! Obviously mounts and everything would need to be done! + brakes ect
