G'Day Mike the process isn't that bad and shouldn't take long, the more information you supply the engineer with the better it is, the engineer will give you a VASS, on it will be what the car is made up from and will include a VIN number which the engineer will stamp onto the chassis. miy engineer was pretty strick, measuring stroke, cam lift etc. I consulted with him much of the way, many things he wanted I didn't agree with but, went the way he wanted because I knew that it was all going to change afterward. Once you have your VIN and VASS book it in at VicRoads. I remember mine the only booking I could get was in hoppers crossing,40 minutes from where I lived early in the morning, I drove it there rain hail or shine and boy was it cold. The guy at vicroads had no idea. There is no roadworthy required as it is a new car and the VASS covers all these things, the stamp duty is also cheaper. They will inspect the chassis number and engine number, I took them proof of purchase of chassis/body and engine. I was there for 20 minutes total, brought my own plates with me put them on and drove off, gsmiling all the way home. Within three hours of getting it home I have stripped it completely. Good luck. I am starting another build but with an LS2 this time for a mate. I will have to call in soon.

cheers
