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
