Hi Jamie
The US dealers will sell project cars to the UK, I know a few go to PJ Grady UK for new owners probably via PJ Grady in the US! I'm not sure how many project cars are sold from other dealers. My guess (and it's only a guess) is that they may wish to do the work and sell them on, however it's well worth contacting a few to find out. There have been a few people who have changed engines if you search for stargliders thread he's had a lovely engine built, MartinG (stunned monkey on hear) has done some as well, Renault V6 turbo's mainly I 'think'. I think there's one running around with a 3l Omega engine as well. Personally if the engine is OK I would keep it stock there not that bad really and it would 'probably' be worth more left as stock. However if the engine is done for or missing then that's something else!
