Yes, like I described above you have to use the Pathfinder case. The Pathfinder ring and pinion are physically much larger than the S-chassis pinion. So because the S-chassis case was never meant to handle a 3.133 r&p, Nissan designed the snout on the S-chassis really small. The Pathfinder snout is much larger.

The Pathfinder R&P won't physically fit into the S-chassis case due to size.

Get everything lined up and call DSS. You have to get a custom shaft anyway if you're doing a V8 swap and DSS can make the rear fit however you need with very little effort.

if i use a drilled out to fit 13mm bolt s13 lsd correct?
Yes, the output flanges fit the LSD, and provided the LSD is redrilled to 13mm to fit the ring, everything fits inside the Pathfinder case and you can reuse your stock axles.
