I seem to recall occasionally seeing an advertisement on the left hand side of club cobra for a Canadian kit version from a Shelby dealer.

But if you would like a brand new Canada friendly Kirkham "kit", I bet you could contact the Kirkham brothers and work something out if you helped figure out what the restrictions are.

Wasn't it short time ago that nobody thought they would be able to register a Kirkham in Australia, but now Bernie Knight has a new Kirkham with a Shelby aluminum block motor that he has put 4000 miles on in 2 months... Just hit 6500

But as the importer it'll be your responsibility to figure out with TC which bits are permissible and which aren't.

Probably the simplest approach would be to copy what FFR does exactly. What works for them should work for anyone else.
