Hell yeah I appreciate you putting this much needed info out there. You’re the reason why I’m in the process in doing mine.

Paying a shop to do the swap, will still be cheaper than buying a Titan with same miles. I'm buying parts now to do my VK swap on my X

Andy,
I did a VK56 swap on my 2wd 05 Pathfinder and the gas mileage improved quite a bit. With the 2wd R51 having a 3.133 rear axle ratio, the VK purrs at barely 3K rpm at 100 mph. I seriously get about 26 mpg on the highway, whereas the VQ40 could manage about 23 mpg if I kept it under 70 mph.
I don't expect that anyone doing the VK swap on a 4wd will share my experience with gas mileage.

I can definitely relate to your honesty. I took a 2004 Pontiac Grand Prix GTP I bought for $150 and turned it into a 700 hp hot rod. I done all the work myself except for engine upgrade. I paid a shop to bore the engine.60 over and had them install a stage 3 comp cam and lifter set. Had the heads and supercharger ported and polished and bigger valves in the heads. Costed me $15,000 but I’m well pleased with it. I put the engine together and installed it myself after I got the block back from the shop.

The lack of change in these trucks over the years and how it's all compatible amazes me too.

Thanks for the update Andy 👍🏻 I got a hell of a steal, $500 for motor, tranny, harness, ecu and a ton of other crap, unfortunately it probably needs overhauled before I drop it in. So, those "You could tell your wife" lines sound pretty well rehearsed, just sayin'... Not gonna lie, I may have used some out them! 🤣

That is one bad ass swap and truck!

[@LiftedXterra28]

Wait...since when does Amazon watch UA-cam?

[@reyesromero466]

what about the drive shaft is the one for the titan plug and play?

[@guynamechris5157]

Does your MPG get better? Perfect response 😂😂😂

[@JW-cn6op]

Well then do a superduty axle swap so you can use the power on those trails in Cali. 😂

[@andys_log]

Lol too lazy and cheap

[@tylerboyer9523]
