If the their avatar is right then I'm pretty sure they'll be able to get it registered. Road rules in the Caribbean are pretty relaxed.

Thanks for the info so far guys.With regards to registration,thats no problem, it can be legally registered.I'm in trinidad in the caribbean.I'm looking for info on the conversion like radiator,diff,rear brakes,engine mounts,instrument panel,removal of hydro fan pump etc.NOTE!!! almost all parts have to be custom made as there is almost no availability of parts.Also need to go single turbo nothing big,due to steering column issues.
