Not Ranked
NJ Titles
I don't want to hijack this thread. Just answering Sal's question.
Sal,
Your car (kit, roller, etc) will be titled as the year the kit is completed. NJ will classify the car as "reconstructed". In order to title the car, you will have to submit the car for an engineering inspection. One part of the inspection is locating the pollution control equipment required for the year of the block. So.....if you have a newer block, you will need to show the engineering inspector your cats, sensors, etc. If you have an older block (and can prove it), then the pollution equipment requirements are minimal or nonexistent. Once you pass this inspection, you will be issued a title. Once titled, if you register as a normal vehicle, you will have a pollution excemption for the year of the motor. Or you can register as Collector Car (not historic) and not go through inspection but have a mileage limitation of 3,000 per year.
My SPF titling has been delayed extensively because I did not understand the NJ rules. I am now back on track with a '63 427 FE block. My paperwork has been submitted and I am waiting for the state to schedule the engineering inspection.
