4.) In Florida, do I need to register a swapped engine with the state/PD? Or anything like that?
5.) Are engine swaps even legal in this state?
6.) Is there some sort of database where I can go to, to see if the engine is out of a stolen car or anything of the sort?
7.) Do we have any laws concerning modifications to cars of a certain age? Like, if a car is older than xx years, are the laws different? How?
I'm obviously in Florida, have a 91' CRX, and I'm looking into swapping my D15Bx for a D16A6/D16Z6, if that matters.
Thanks in advance..
