smokeybear Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 you can put any motor from one car into just about any other car. Having owned a 521, I personally don't see it fitting without moving the firewall back. The KA24DE is a far more common swap and I think can be done with OEM mounts. I think a ka with 240sx wiring/trans would be the most direct swap possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Xnke Posted April 5, 2009 Share Posted April 5, 2009 Might try looking at the 4.3, either TBI or Vortec versions.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
