Wow! The car in that picture sure does look familiar...

Just like this one!

And this one!

And this... oh... well, it would have been here if they hadn't lost the originals! HAHAHA!!

Almost as if they "stole?" it from here and just "blocked out" the logos:

I don't really think stock internals is a fair comparison anymore. When you consider having to go to the lengths of modifying everything to get that engine to fit, I'd think you'd have a fair comparison by modifying the engine that's a direct bolt in to make the same hp.

Okay..you guys may give me flack. But whatever...lol I have pondered...and thought about putting a Titan V8 in one of my Z's. I thought about doing it to my slicktop. Oh and the stock Titan with 5.6 litre...produces 340hp stock. I know somebody that chose the Toyota Tundra over it. Because the Toyota was running 380hp and some change....stock. Oh and if a friggin' small block Chevy 350 can fit in a ZX. So can a Titan V8..I am sure. Yes of course there will fabbing and modding and such. Isn't that the fun part about it? lol Anyway they are pretty much the same size. Just that the Titan is Nissan..heh heh

WildmaN, you are partially right. But go measure that Titan V8 and then measure an LSx or SBC and you'll find the Chevy's are quite a bit more narrow.

Think "OHV" vs "DOHC". Those two cams on top of the heads take up a LOT of space.
