As long as the paint shop, the engine builder and/or installer are different from the manufacturer/retailer, ERA, in this case, and you have receipts to show that these are separate entities, then the car can be registered in CA under SB100.

The problem that was mentioned earlier here on CC was where the CA DMV "interpreted" that the engine builder/installer was a division of the manufacturer, IIRC. That wouldn't be the case here.

BTW, my engine builder was Tom Lucas and I recommend him, though I hear great things about Neil R. locally here in the Bay Area.
