Dude Google search is your new friend and your in Diego and there is bunch down there already.

 

What's your fab skills

How much money you got

How fast do you really want to go

SR/KA has been so much there dime a dozen

You want to be different do some other swap,or go with the flow

 

 

The most normal swap is a KA

Lz build.

 

 

I say, learn the L motors, drive your truck around with one as you build a ka or find a running one.

 

Get your parts together before the swap.

 

There a shit ton of ka swap builds. The 620 isn't that different the 521 so maybe read some 620 ka swaps. There's also a bunch of Lz builds. Lz22,lz21,lz23

 

On Google home page put ratsun at the beginning or end of anything you want to find on ratsun. It helps find just about everything you need.

I've been eyeing a VG30E or DE or maybe a DETT for my 521. I have a 87 V6 200SX donor car already and after some quick measurements it appears like it will fit.

 

There will always 4 billion details to work out after saying "Hell ya, I'm doing an engine swap!".
