Yes it is, if u make the motor legal chp will sign off on it, they will also give u a peice of paper showing the motor is legally yours (show a recipet for buying it) and so if u get pulled ovewr and ur VIN on ur engine doesnt match the VIN on ur chassis u wont have a theft issue. Thats what my friend did for his motor swap, but for me. Hope it helps.
