Default RHD conversion. engineer and compliancing

hey guys,
got myself a nice rust free 1962 1/2 american falcon sports coupe roller that im looking at converting to RHD.

ive heard a few people do the conversion using an aussie firewall. thats all well n good, however ive removed the dash and it appears to be a fairly straight forward conversion and i believe i can modify the current firewall accordingly.

does anyone know a good automotive engineer who would pop over and instruct me as to what i can and cant do in order to get it complianced and on the road legit???

oh also looking for a triple SU lynx manifold to suit 250 2v.

im in melbourne. any help would be hugely appreciated.
cheers
-Nate
