370 Nissan Hardbody
Guys, I am very slowly gathering parts for a new project; a 370 in a '94 Nissan Hardbody.
The truck is pretty rough, but it was almost free.
The plan is this:
370 built by HKE, ported 799 heads, the usual cam, springs, etc..
Victor Jr., TH400, 4000 stall, narrow rear frame rails and tub enough to fit 325/50-15's, ladder bars with coil overs, factory Nissan wheels widened to 15x10 for the rear, and spray 200.
The truck is very light; around 2600. It should be well below 3k when done.
I'd like to see 10.0s
This will be a very lOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONG project, but it does give me something to do.

Right now I'm stripping out the interior and cleaning it up. I am going to wait until I have pics worth showing before I post some.

I had a '93 I bought new. Very tough trucks.
I just wanted to do something different with the swap. Everyone has seen a v8 S-10, but you never hear of an LS1 Hardbody.

This would look really good with the wheels tucked in a little more and hammered to the ground! Can't wait to see what you come up with!
