do your research!...it can be done but there is a specific way to buy a junker car with a simular size motor have it junked then transfer the title for emissions purposes to your car...lots of info on the factory five forum website...good luck and just be patient!...its a process

Depends on how your car is already registered?

It is currently titled as a 1966..."1966 ERA 427" VIN: 677

I live in Illinois, and I have no knowledge of Mass. procedures.

Thanks for any help.

Should be a straight transfer. Except that VIN number is a flag.

Thanks...I know it's a weird VIN...just the Serial Number of the car. The State titled the car that way, and State Farm gave me no problems when I insured it.

Are you moving or selling it to Ma.? The VIN will be an issue. PM me and I'll share the short version of what I went through if your interested.

Any new Ma. registrations out there using a 427 fe.I know this is an older thread,but it's the correct subject matter. This is a new build with mso so I'm starting from scratch.

Contact the MASS DMV office and ask for the "Kit Car Package", follow the rules to the letter and you'll be just fine. Quite a bit has changed in MASS since 2013 when this thread petered out, so perhaps starting a new build thread would be a better idea. Also, Bob at ERA can probably guide you on the title/registration process in MASS, as he is quite knowledgeable on the subject.

You will be hunting for an old car that qualifies with a large enough engine to crush as a carbon trade for that 427. The process is outlined in detail online if you search a bit.

It's a MASSive procedure but can be done if you follow the steps.
