Hey i was just wondering if anyone has ever attempted to put a 2.0 nissan gazelle motor in sierra? If so what are the pros and cons? Because i can get an ex drag car for $300, thats whole car!

What engine is that? CA20 i am guessing or is it a FJ/SR motor.
If its the ca i beleive they are cast so heavy things.
Not legal but maybe for buggy.

If its a none turbo Australian Market model also known as a S12 its more likely a CA20E
The CA20E and CA20ET is a fairly strong motor and considered to be alot stronger than the SR20DET motor but parts are harder to come by than SR20 as they are in alot more model Nissans in both imports and Aussie models, I doubt if there is going to much after market help for fitting up to your Zook compared to the 4AGE and twin cam GTi's as such
If its a import japan model its going to be a FJ20E or if it was turbo FJ20ET.
Getting the care for $300 dollars with the motor sounds like a good score but will proabably open a can of worms for things that need to be made for fitting into your Sierra which will cost alot more....

Yeah thanks for all your input i dont think ill be doing that than because it would be too heavy and too hard to find parts for!

Diddyzook was looking at a pintara motor, all alloy so quite light.

My mate had one of those things CA20E in his pintara.
It was the biggest bucket of shit to work with, twin spark and all.
Steer clear - please!
