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

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.

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.

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.

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! 🤣

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