Having consulted an expert,the email of which was found on the FBHVC website, it would appear that the type of engine conversion I have was available before ten years after the end of production of the stag so an MOT will no longer be required. i found in the last few years that some garages do not really know how to deal with a classic car regarding MOT's and I was coming away with a string of advisories until I found a sensible garage where it passed for the last few years without any advisories.
