right here goes my traveller does not have the original engine in it and has a replacement engine in so the tag on engine is not the original engine number if I buy a hereitage certificate would that provide me . of the original engine number then could I buy or have made a new tag with original number on to be fitted to the replacement engine now thanks

I've sent you a PM

Yes! You can....

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

Far be it from me to....etc etc.....

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------

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.

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(?)
