Ooh tempting, do you think I’ll need a cert for my engine swap to run?

If your car has a WOF and you know there's nothing dodgy about the engine swap I would say there will be no problems to have a play .
Good brake pads and a brake fluid flush helps fresh oil in the engine as you will get things HOT.
Boosted cars are like hot women.
A little edgy, every guy wants one,
some guys can't handle them,
and if you throw a little alcohol in them they'll rock your world.

Long as it's safe to run, you sign a form to say it is and away you go, no cert required back as Colin said good brake fluid and a flush before you go really helps or you run out of brakes after a few laps, which is very scary if you are flat out on the back straight and the brake pedal isn't doing much .... :D
I don't brake much so I haven't had a problem so far , SW20's can out corner many of the cars on the track no problems :)
