Default Registering a swapped motor

Hello guys I am kind of new to this whole honda-tech thing. I just wanted to know the steps to take to register a swapped motor. I know it has to do with some referee or somthing, how much does the whole process cost? Thanks guy....I am asking because i am looking to buy a hatch and get a motor swapp, if its too much trouble i wont do it. Sorry I am a noob

Search a little harder... I've seen at least 6 or 7 jdm motors get Bar'd so far. Just make sure that the motor is the same year or newer and you use all of the smog equpt from the year vehicle you took the motor out of. Its easiest to stay within your own OBD. IE if you have an obdI car stay with obdI motors. Make sure you have a usdm ecu that corresponds with the jdm motor you are going to use... Then hook up your charcoal canister evap purge adn what not and you should be good to go...
