and the usa. i have seen an add for a company that installs 350 chevs into zooks but they lengthen the chassis and the guards and bonnet and strenthen the chassis and they run g/boxs, t/case and diffs from donor vehicles so the only thing left zook is the chassis (modified) and the body

If you are in NSW i cant see why not. If they can pass a suzuki with a 3.8 commodore V6, they should pass a 3.5 V8. Im sure they mesure off engine compacity not the amount of cylinders.
Its not cool, unless it's got boost :)
