Generally the rules are as follows. (And i do say very generally)

1.) The engine must be same age or newer than the car and must be installed with all required emissions add-ons.

2.) Any engine can be used but must be straight gas, ie no duel fuel. just gas.

There is a 3rd option but requires emissions testing which is just not worth it.
