And so she called, and the nice man on the phone said that since the manual gearbox to be put in was simply the one available for that model of car, then it would be perfectly alright, not needing an inspection or any sort, and no, I didn't even have to tell the Department.
They also both found my story about my long phone call to the Department to be very amusing, especially the bit about me being told that I was able to drive a modified, uninspected vehicle down the highway to be inspected.
. . . and neither of them had heard of the NCOP or VSB14!
