620z Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 (edited) 11 hours, 3 states, 1 tire and a uhaul trailer later and my new project is finally home. Over all the new truck is in very good shape. Almost completely rust free. Everything is stock except for the engine swap. It now has a ka24 from a 98 Frontier. Guess he didn't want to bother with the wiring harness so he changed it over to carb. I have the intake and wiring harness that goes with it to bring it back to injected.

KELMO Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 Quote Nice score. Not 100%, but I think those may be Frontier wheels also. Don't recall seeing those on 720's 1 Quote Link to comment

Don't recall seeing those on 720's Yes, you are correct that the wheels are not the factory ST wheels and in fact from a Frontier. I was talking about the body, interior and suspension.

datzenmike Posted March 20, 2021 Report Share Posted March 20, 2021 Leave it carbureted. Check the choke comes on when starting. There should be an engine tag on the inner right fender below the hood hinge. Post a picture of it to see what exactly was in this originally 1 Quote Link to comment

I was talking about the body, interior and suspension. I should have put the word "sure" after the "100%"😉 The tag Mike is talking about will probably say it came originally with a Z24I engine. Which was throttle body injection. 1 Quote Link to comment

datzenmike Posted March 21, 2021 Report Share Posted March 21, 2021 What I wanted to know was if it was a Z24i which has a high pressure fuel pump.... it won't work well with a carburetor. Does the air filter have 2 wing nuts holding it on??? That would be a Z24i 1 Quote Link to comment
