I understand exactly what you are saying, its just that

When i spoke to an engineer, he seemed to think that i had 6 years grace.
Using the purchase date of the body/chassis you can go back 3 years and pick an engine from that 3 years. Then you have maximum 3 years to complete the project... which gives you 6...

I hate talking to engineers on the phone, they seem to head off on their own course sometimes.
