Cameron02 and I are running the same 220 AU Tickford donk but to add to his words unless you can get your car final engineered before the end of this year the AU option is not available to you. That is the timeline I am running to and Cameron02's car has been engineered already.

As was said earlier find a VASS engineer - a Vicroads approved engineer and bounce these sort of questions off him. Is your chassis going to meet requirements, what powerplant can you use etc.

I'm guessing those big boss motors might be less suitable for you chassis over an aluminium Ch, Ch, dark side option, so that is something you need to research.

In the words of my engineer, you can do what you like - provided it meets the relevant ADR's!!

Cheers
