unfortunately this one is a auto-- 4l60 i believe 80k miles on the motor runs perfect no smoke-- and heard it run before i bought it --

i also decided to use the entire truck harness from the column to the speedo all the way out to the motor and trans -

comp cam setup
3500 stall converter
B&M 4spd shifter

stock suspension for now but gonna get some stance coilovers for it and some solid bushings and 300z rear end

custom driveshaft chevy front and nissan rear welded together -steel
custom mounts for motor and trans
had to make the Left circle area where the clutch pedal goes a little bigger to fit the harness-- most of the harness is ran under the fender like stock nissan is- interior harness is tucked under the dash and behind the radio --

may have a vid or startup vid next week sometime

if anyone is interested i do have a 2009 2wd sherrifs edition tahoe motor for sale with 18k miles

Must be one hell of a cam to give you that kind of increase without any other supporting mods.

I noticed you're from omaha. I use to work at Autozone on 50th. I can say I've never seen your car. Very nice build. Would you have the t25 from that redtop?

Can you send me a linking on where you got those headers and how much you paid for them? Are they Carb legal?
