Default questions about engine swap and etc

Like the title said, I want to know if engine swap in VA is legal or not.
I heard jdm engine swap in VA is illegal. Is it true that engine swap wont pass any inspection and emission?
And what are the mods that will not pass inspection and emission test?
Thank you for your information.

Swaps are not illegal in Texas, so go to Texas and get your engine swap done there... Then come back to Virginia and show all the JDM kids hanging out in parking lots how VTEC your JDM swap is. That's what we all do

Didn't any of the FS trolls that you usually hang out with have the answer?

Don't make another duplicate thread about this. This is your only warning.
