In that case you should have a Bill of Sale/Receipt drafted by the seller for the engine and transmission with the serial number of the engine (you can stamp it) and the transmission. The rear end issue has not presented a problem but you can serialize that too and have the seller include it in the document.

Though I have never had to go this route it was discussed once at Weathersfield.

The bigger problem is when some pinhead somewhere else in the country enters a part number for transmission etc. and then that number sets off the anti-theft machines later.
