.... not everyone has such an "aw shucks" arrangement ...
I know I certainly wouldn't appreciate buying such a car and then finding
that I couldn't register it due to an illegal engine swap.

One of the nice things about being in Maine, and being on pretty good
relations with my wrench, is that inspections and emissions are not an
issue. Outside of Cumberland and York counties there is no such thing as
emissions. In addition to that, my wrench is my inspection station, so
inspecting the car would be no issue.

One problem I see arising from your proposed swap Roger, is that your
stating off with a chassis that's newer than the motor you want to swap in.
Big no no, and wont get by inspection or emissions(if applicable) While you
are allowed to swap out motors , they must be from same year or newer
car( Your best bet would be to start out with an abh, and stuff that into a
100/s4. Good luck. BTW, there is already a 97 S6+ here CT , so it can be
done. Al
