intake exchange

[nissan720]

in process of doing my swap.sohc engine out of 1994 truck into my 1984 720 .will the intake from the sohc 240 work.i found one at the local salvage yard.just want to know is it a direct bolt on?

Yes and get the EFI wiring harness for the 240sx as well. It's a separate harness on the car but is mixed in to the main engine harness on the Hardbody. Much easier to use it.

It bolts right up but the ports are not a perfect match. In fact there is one section where there is probably only a 16th of an inch sealing area on the gasket. I am running a 240 intake on a 1995 hardbody engine. Works fine but at rebuild time I will put the 240 head on the truck block. Make sure you get everything missing sensors are expensive to chase down individually and maybe you should keep this on one thread so we don't have to find your next question because you will have a bunch. I purchased a whole 240sx engine because I got tired of chasing one piece at a time.

This will technically work.. but it must be a SOHC head from the 240 - just be aware the cams will be different between the two and will require some changes to make work from what I've read.

 

The DOHC head won't work due to the oil/coolant galleys not matching as well as the difference in timing chain.

Yep an 89 single cam. Won't happen any time soon truck runs fine. The mismatch in the ports was the only thing that bothered me. There is that super thin spot, but it doesn't leak.

What years 240 head will fit an 85 2.4

None without absurd amounts of other work. HRH i think built a ka/z and it was a pretty inn deity build. They are talking about KA truck and KA 240sx.

Oh I see.... :(
