insurance and engine swaps...
i just recently swapped in a JDM GSR into my 94 delsol si. should i tell my insurance company. and if i do, should i just tell them i have a acura integra GSR in there. because if i tell them i have the japanese one in there i could get in trouble because they dont pass emissions correct? if i tell them about my enigne swap and then i wreck they should cover the replacement engine right? has anyone done this? how much did your insuarnce go up? kasey thanks

i've never known anybody to tell their insurance company, god only knows what they would do to you.... what i would try doing is taking out property insurance on the motor itself

Thats what I'm going to do. Basically i'm getting a rider on top of my basic policy for the declared value of everything I have put on. My insurance agent is a good freind of mine and he worked out all the details.

Re: insurance and engine swaps... (hot_EG)
most insurance policies will only replace the parts for a stock vehicle. If you have done stereo equip stuff you can usually get an amended policy to cover the extra stuff....,.Here's the kicker...you put a different engine in the car....They want to know why....then it could end up a stink about racing and then might change or cancel your policy....
I work for insurance company... and my car has liability only and is not my daily driver b/c even the ins co is cracking down on this stuff!
