which years are a straight forward swap with 2004, unleaded fuel.

how about the armada?

I don't know if this helps or not but my son did an engine swap in his 06 flex fuel. He had to swap in another 06 flex fuel.

thanks, ya i assumed there might be some differences between the unleaded and the flex fuel.

04-06 engines

 

[mudhole]

thanks, so 04-06 are a straightforward swap, how about later years? how much change?

 

[mudhole]

does the 04-06 work with armada as well?

pretty sure you can only use 04-06 stuff. i just swapped my 06 and all the stuff i read said use 04-06. the heads are different after 06 i think.

thanks again, also does the truck package make a difference, it is going form a 2wd XE into a 4wd nismo off road package truck, both are 04

Armada is the same engine. If you had a Titan and Armada side by side you would be hard pressed to tell the difference when looking in the engine bay. However, I've heard that the Armadas are tuned differently from the factory than the Titan.

would a infiniti q56 2004 swap easily with titan 2004?

Armada and titan would have the same motor, yes. Tuning is slightly different, but if you keep the ECU thats in your truck, it would never know the difference.

2007+ has different heads, and CVVT (i think thats what its called, it has to do with valve timing), so in order to put on of those in, you would have to swap over EVERYTHING. Harness, fuse blocks, ECU, BCU, TCU, transmission etc.

2wd to 4wd still uses the same motor, so it doesn't matter if a 4wd motor goes into a 2wd.
