Anybody here serious into the Westy's?

I live in California, and I was wondering what the rules are for upgrading or putting different motors in these? For example, if I found myself an early 70's Camper and I wanted to put a Type IV motor in it, could I and pass inspection?

Precision motor car in Portland. They have a kit that they purchase out of new York, $5000 or close to it. They will supply the subie motor, 2.5, low mileage, that way if there is a problem with the motor they take care of it.
Labor rate to install is @$90 an hour.
After researching the others, this is the best value, currently the soonest you can get is October. 503-232-7669
