If you change your motor, or swap out the block to run a ls/vtec and your car gets stolen, if the thefts just take the head and leave the block, does the insurance company check to make sure its a type R block. Will they give you a lower estimated value for the car. We dont want to run the stock motor boosted, but also dont want to get screwed if it gets stolen and the insurance company turns into a bitch.

WTH is "lowerest?"

Why not explain, in detail, how you want to insure the car to your insurance agaent?

 

What happens if the car does get stolen? Now your sitting on a stolen motor. So it would be smart to tell them that kind of information.

 

haha, I was in a rush while typing, *fixed. My friends parents pay for the insurance and he doesnt want to mess with anything

Tell him to GROW UP then use his money for INSURANCE then the turbo and crap

 

If you tell your insurance that you changed your motor, you'll find that they'll tell you to expletive off immediately.

 

So you're trying to get insurance info for a car that isn't even yours? Why bother worrying yourself with someone else's issue? Tell your friend's parents to call the insurance co. and ask them.

 

Its a really close friend, were like cousins and he also uses this screen name on this board. But he doesnt go online too much, so when im on, I just check up on questions and things like that.

I don't understand how <U>you're</U> getting mixed up in anything here - it's <U>his</U> car and his <U>parents</U> insurance. Am I missing something?
