G'day

Years ago there were 2 plumbers at Cessnock who midmounted a Chev 454ci V8 in a CFS. They just cut a hole and made a couple of x-members. It was a very fast van even with all their tools in it.

Do you mean the legalities of mid mounted engines? Would be best to have a chat with an engineer in your state, to see if it can be registered.
