Re: crate engine

I've heard of a 350 getting a Titan engine recently. As far as my Titan goes I'd just keep it as is. Now if I had my Frontier still then maybe a swap would be appealing.

Re: crate engine

you really can do anything you want, it's just the time/money factor.

i was just reading a thread where a guy built a titan with ford front sa and a dodge rear axle.... he spent 30-40 grand and ended up with 18" of lift or something like that...

what'd you have in mind?

Re: crate engine

I say we enter our trucks in the Overhaulin' show.

They swap out engines all the time plus a whole lot of goodies...

Re: crate engine

Can we put a 2 degree timing advance on it to get a little more response?

The V-12 from a Bugatti Veyron.
How about a nice, medium sized, turbo diesel?
