Classic car as in pre 1980s or so?
Because an engine change on a modern ICE car is far from easy. In major part because of the same bullshit with electronics incompatibility caused by manufacturers.
Wrong serial numbers on injectors/ECU/sensors? Welp, fuck you, buy compatible original parts or swap the whole engine, every little wire and all.
It's like needing to swap the battery+controller+motors on an EV.
Then again, government regulations play a part here, at least in Europe. Can't just have you riding around in your now "custom" car.
