You want to put a 3.5 in a Hardbody/ wd21 Pathfinder? I really don't think it will work. Nissan swapped one into an Xterra and it looked like a tight fit. I have no idea how they made the exhaust work.

You'll need the whole engine harness and the correct ecu for auto or manual.

on the 3.5-The exhaust would be totally custom through out the truck. Not the kind of work even a custom exhaust shop could do. You'll would have to do it all yourself.

The VG30DETT is plain and simple to fat of a engine to fat. I don't see any gains used the max engine.

You might want to look into swapping in the VG33, if your looking for horsepower pick up the supper charged version.

I think the DOHC makes it too wide vs the sohc going vg33 would be the way to go. Chevyman_57 did a writeup on it and you can keep your stock ecu and sensors. VG33ER (supercharged) would prolly be the your biggest bang w/o getting to complicated. and you might get away with still using stock ecu & sensors if you have the vg33e not the vg33i

mostly stock(for now)
