As an SM competitor for some time, I have spent a good deal of time with these rules...

My read is that the first sentance makes it very clear. Only the badge on the engine matters, not when, or for what it was produced.

If you want to drop a C5 engine into a Chevette, go for it, just don't modify the firewall, or much of anything else to do it!

The spirit of the SM rules are if you can bolt it on. or in without using a saws all and everything else still works, it's OK.
