When you go for your IVA one of the first things VOSA will ask you to do is to prove the age of the engine, by markings or log book. If he's in any doubt over your engine age he'll subject you to the strictest emissions test. Think they are probably sick of people trying it on getting pre-cat tests on their cars.

The easiest process is to get the car IVA'd with a pre-95 block in then upgrade the power house afterwards - MOT man is highly unlikely to check engine age. Will cost a lot more money to go CAT route.
