Hi there
i have had my 89 ford laser rebuilt and converted to manual and there is no modification to the xmember at all
its all factory parts the donor car was a 91 mazda familia
do I need a Cert as have been told i do by some people and i dont by some other people
Listed below are the modifications that do not require LVV certification.
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 ancillary equipment (accelerator linkages etc), and
– uses the same family of block and cylinder head from the same vehicle manufacturer, and
– is of the same configuration.
I strongly recommend you make contact with a LVV certifier to discuss. I suspect you will need LVV certification but contact a certifier to confirm either way.
