Ahmedsinc 414 Report post Posted October 29, 2013 (edited) will still need cert as not the original engine or trans LVV Certification is always required for any engine or drive-train-related modifications unless specified below: (if modification does not appear below, always refer to LVV Certifier) Fitting of or modification to: LVV Certification is not required provided that: (refer to LVV Certifier if beyond threshold below) Substitution of engines When compared with the OE engine, the replacement engine: is of the same or less cubic capacity; and has equal or less weight; and has the same or less power output; and uses the same fuel (petrol, diesel, LPG, CNG); and uses the same unmodified attachment points and system (ie bolts-in); and uses the same family of block and cylinder head from the same vehicle manufacturer; and is of the same configuration. Reckon you'd need to have a trainspotter of a WoF inspector to pick up the difference between the B40 & B42! But yes, technically it should be certified However if the vehicle has been converted from auto to manual using ONLY OEM parts and with no modification to the car it does not require certification. I had a good long chat with the certifier the father-in-law uses before commencing on the 325i conversion. Better safe than failed!

Andre3000 55 Report post Posted December 18, 2013 Damnit Brent if only i had the cash right now i'd be throwing that in the touring. Got stung with some hefty fines/charges after some spirited bike riding... If you still have the engine and trans in March look me up. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
