Import Tips
• Include racing sanctioning body approvals or vehicle blueprints showing propulsion integration
• Ensure crankshaft and cylinder bore measurements are documented for capacity verification
• Avoid common pitfall of declaring as 'industrial engine' which redirects to higher-duty 8407.90 codes
