    Default Road worthy.

    If all goes well be getting the car early next week. The engine (4age) has been mod plated, will it need to have additional mod plates for it being EFI and having modified fuel delivery(Lift pump, surge tank, fuel pump all in a sealed box in the boot) or should this all be covered by the mod plate done for the engine?

    I have moved this thread to the QLD section, even though it's a technical question I think the people in the same state would be best equiped to answer the question at hand

    the mod plate will mean nothing without the paperwork to say what it is

    Ok I don't think he still has the paperwork with it. I looked up the code and it just says change of engine. He was told the mod plate would cover the change to efi as well as the fuel pump. When I take it for a rwc anyone know if I'll need paperwork with the mod plate?

    Yes you probably will. Even the transport department wanted to see mine before I could register my last car.

    Fuel system is a seperate code from engine.
    It is my understanding that
    * LA1 - covers the engine conversion - (should include Option 3 for forced induction.)
    * LB1 - covers the gearbox change.
    * LM1 - covers the conversion of the fuel system to EFI.
    * LG1 - covers brakes
    * LK1 - covers diff

    Yeah I looked up the standards and read through it and all the info on LM1 was about the actual fuel tank and regulations and nothing on fuel delivery and LA1 was all about engine. Neither had any reference to the delivery system. The guy who is selling it, its advertised on here, said that he wasnt given paperwork and I was under the impression that the plate was the paper work. He was also told that the blue plate(LA1) would cover the fuel pump/surge tank and conversion to EFI as its all neccessary for the engine to work. On the other hand stock came with an in take pump so I guess that would be a modified tank so it would be LM1?
