The motor swap would put you in some type of SM (Street Modified). But if you just go to an event they will help you class your car at tech.

That's not true. It's not tech's job to class you or even registration. It's the competitor's responsibility to class yourself or to figure what class you are in. Or else if registration or tech classes your wrong there could be some backlash - although most regions do help you.

What's left of your interior? If your interior is intact you would be in SM (Street Mod) because of your motor swap. Also you cannot to triangle strut bars in SM.

Sorry for the incomplete info

I'm located here at chicago , normally i just bring my car to circuits
when they have open track day's.

Yes I still have my whole interior in my car , with the option that I have a racing seats and harness , I also have a regular strut bar that goes to the shock mounts, top and lower front and back .

I also just got the 2005 scca rule book , but I still get confused with the either or that explains modification .

anyway thanks for the input !

can you still be on SM (street mod) if you install a roll cage ?

can you substitute a test pipe instead of a racing cat.

my engine is a jdm , so i dont have any cat thats the reason why i'm asking .

Yeah I know...but they will answer any questions about rule interpretations, from what I have seen.

Do your research though...read the rules. I'm still trying to get a handle on all the specifics of the stock rules. Too many "if" statements.
