Why put a production engine id on a Gold Seal replacement?

would it not be fraud if you sold it or deception if you entered it in a concours show ?

You would use the original number if the engine was reconditioned at home, so what's the difference? I would say none! Besides, who on earth would know/care?---there may be a slim chance that the original number is in use somewhere but------

[bmcecosse]

As far as DVLA etc are concerned -you don't NEED an engine number! And it won't make the car one penny more valuable if it 'has' the original engine (number) fitted.

I can only shrug my shoulders and sigh with this one.

[highland morris]

was just asking but maybe ill leave as is just wanted to know others thoughts the gold seal engine is not in the car anymore its one I bought from irmsher on here

What are the details of your car?

Might be easier to obtain an engine of similar age(?)
