Approximately how much does it cost to get an A15 engineered in a 1200 ute in QLD? ie mod plate fitted

How do you go about doing it?

Suggestions on where in QLD this can be done (suggestions in Bundaberg even better)?

There's a place in town that does gas installations/conversions, might hit them up about it, wave a 50 or two in their face might persuade them.

Im going to suggest that it happens to be a mob that does mod plating and is in qld.

It answers one of the questions directly!

Bakat, It means Road worthy certificate which every car needs in OZ to be able to be registered or if you buy a new car and it hasnt been tested by previous owner. Its a one time thing for every new owner.

Sam, if you are going to engineer an engine you might as well get an L series or LN2 2.2 chevy four ;)

The A15 is already in the ute and I want the car on the road ASAP, CBF messing around with crossmembers and control arms and tailshafts and.....my head hurts already just thinking about it!!!!

Can't you just put an L series in it later on anyway? or do the mod plates in QLD specify engine number on them?

A mate told me that Australian Automatics and Ken Day's Auto Repairs do conversions in Bundaberg and he guessed it would cost 200 all up for mod plate and RWC
