I’d love to watch that from the driver’s seat, there’s no way it’d get old. I’m not sure I’d go for this exact arrangement but its still a great solution. The VH4XDE motors are real gems; high revving and smooth. If you aren’t dead set on 500+ horsepower (an LS), a VH45DE + an n/a 300ZX transmission will have your 240 running on 8 cylinders for less than $3k if you want to be cheap with the necessary bell housing adapter, pedal box, etc. I really enjoyed daily driving my Y33 Q45 and always wondered what that lovely V8 would be like mated to a manual transmission in a lighter car. Definitely a missed opportunity on Nissan’s part! If there’s a track car/back road bomber build in my future this season, I could definitely get behind a very clean 96-98 240 with this swap... that wouldn’t even involve finding a manual... oh no I like this idea a LOT

That’s a pretty cool hood. Never seen one like that before.

Hackers.
If they’d have done the hood properly, they’d have rolled the edges of the openings down.

Built a custom hood for a 350 swapped RX7.

Likewise. Makes putting a big scoop over all that and calling it a day seem pretty boring...

See, that’d be the quick and easy thing to do.

Don’t worry I’m pedantic too. The weather stripping could be way neater at the very least. Pics of said hood?

I gotta see if my uncle has any pics of it.
At the time I didn’t think anything of it. I built the hood for his car while I was working on my supercharged 3.8L RX7.

I’ve done a few. That was a show car. Otherwise I built a cowl for my old daily in a weekend just for fun: https://oppositelock.kinja.com/thought-id-post-up-my-old-acclaim-build-for-everyone-1823032640
