I'm struggling to see how those two formulas can mix...
Here's how I would do it:

Create a GT3+ category with an actual ruleset. Those are the cars that are allowed to race in the ACO series.

At the same time, these cars form the backbone of the national and independent international series, but these series are allowed to BoP whatever cars they want into the same category as the ACO cars. So you can either build a car to the ruleset and go to LM, or ignore the ruleset and settle for a regional homologation and BoP.
