Import Tips

Verify engine displacement via spec sheet to confirm 1,000-2,000 cc range; mismatches lead to reclassification

Include OEM part numbers and vehicle compatibility docs for CBP review to prove Chapter 87 fit

Ensure EPA/CARB emissions certification for spark-ignition engines to avoid holds at entry
