Hey guys, I have a VK56VD engine that I am selling. This engine is DOUBLE the cost of the VK56DE engine! I used this to take measurements from to check my adapter fitment, etc. If you have too many miles on your titan or a blown engine, this is your chance to be the first to drop the new 400HP VK56VD engine into a titan.
Go to this link below to see pics of the engine...or look up Neo's Garage Asking $3,500 obo https://sites.google.com/site/neosga...-engine/vk56vd

That is awesome! So, I'm assuming you make the adaptor plate. What other mods would have to be made to make this seamless?

The easy way would be to get an ECU and harness out of a 2011+ QX56 which is where this motor came from and use the auto titan tranny. You would need to get a programmer involved to control NATS, etc.
If you want to bang gears with a six speed then a stand alone and piggyback system would work better. I am working with an ECU company to get a standalone to work with direct injection. Then a custom harness would be needed. Should be able to tweak the stock configuration up to 460HP at the crank with good headers, and a great tuner etc...
I think it would be a fun project for a drag strip titan.

This...would be a huge issue. No one can figure out the trans tuning. much less putting a qx wiring harness on the titan computers.
