so i just recently aquaired a 92 nissan 240sx auto, with a single cam. im planning on swapping it with a twin cam five speed. now, i already have the tranny, wiring harness and drive shaft and clutch pedal assembly. what else woud i need to complete the build other than the motor, ecu and cluster.
i understand that some of you might think that a twin cam is a waste of time but i honestly dont want to have to deal with the referee for an sr. ive been a subaru owner for 3 years and im pretty mechanically inclined, along with a few other buddies of mine. so i dont expect to get into too many jams i hope. i appreciate your guys's time and advice.

prolly got dropped in as a second engine at some point guys.

To the OP.
some people believe that the SOHC is actually a quiker engine than the DOHC.
I believe it also has a higher compression.
i would say, If it aint broke...........



wait, is it a engine transplant or a auto to manual project.

please clarify for us.
You say your doing a auto to manual, then refer to SR's and ref's...........






.......confused........
