This sounds like a cool project. Is the engine and tranny just something you have sitting around, or are you specifically wanting these. Why not swap in a Nissan VQ40 (4.0L in the newer trucks) which should produce a little more power and keep it all Nissan? Even better, swap in a VK56DE which is the current Endurance V8! Ok, now I am just starting to dream... Post up if you get this project to work regardless of what you use.

I would stick with the chevy because there are plenty of parts for them. If you really want to gain more horse power, do a body lift and then swap in a chevy 305 or 350
