aye - best ring up queensland transport and ask them -
i am pretty sure there is a rule (somewhere) that you can enlarge the engine 10%- to allow for rebuilds etc - which means the ford 221 engine goes in with a nod and wink ( ie 200ci + 10% = 220ci)
as an aside i have a letter from vic roads okaying the 221 in an xp.
as i live in vic , for some obscure reason i rang sth aust transport to enquire what they allow - seems they have a booklet for engine types/sizes that you can install in all sorts of cars- so thinking i could get a copy ,i rang them - the bloke said the book is out of print but looked up his tables and said ' yeah XP and 221 is no probs - just bring it down and we will change the eng number'
so moral is - ring up QT and ask them first
