has anyone ever transplanted a 240sx DOC cylinder head onto the hardbody block? I would like there would be some increase in performance going from single to dual overhead cam. Any thoughts on this?

Or just find a 98+ twin cam Frontier 4 banger and swap in the whole thing. Might have one in a year or so Smile

143hp from the factory. As for it being a direct swap, I can't say. It would require an ECU change, as the K24DE (twin cam) uses and OBDII computer.
