best bet would be to call the vic equivalent to the rta. think it might be vic roads but being from nsw not 100% sure on what it is. they will be able to give you a definate answer but it will also depend on the level of signatory which signed it off. try and get as much info as you can on who it is engineered by in nsw, all the mods and give vic roads a call.

An Engineers Certificate is valid in any state.
Take the Certificate along with a RWC, Transfer papers (if transferring the rego) and a receipt and that will be that.

There should also be a Mod Plate attached to the engine bay, its usually blue, that will also list the Mods done, who signed it off and any other info that needs to be known.
Once that plate is on the car, its good for any State or Territory.

I thought the RTA had certain Engineers they recognise, and none are interstate, I hope for your sake it is not the same in vic

Each state has their own recognised engineers, if the bloke who did it in NSW isn't on the VIC's list of approved engineers then you will have to get it engineered again in VIC. Its a PITA

Yeah its a 75 tc with an 351 clevo in it it's a really nice neat car but if it's gonna be that much trouble it can stay in nsw i don't want the headaches of going through engineers again here in vic i thought a nsw engineers report was sufficent looks like its not.
Also about 5 years back i worked with a bloke that moved here from qld and had a xf fitted with a 351 clevo he had the mod plate from qld all he did down here was get a roady and had no dramas with getting reg looks like times have changed stupid pollies vic is really a nanny state considering moving
