What do you all think about a 4.3 swap

Wutz up ppl? I have an 87 Nissan hardbody 4x4. And any1 who knows about older nissans know about the sorry z24 motors. They are infamous for havin head problem! Some ppl like them but I would prefer more HP in the MUD DAWG The z24 motor bone stock is spitn out only like 106hp. Recently I picked up another motor from the junkyard to put in but I still have the thoughts of putn a 4.3 under the hood. I just didn't feel like messing with the "WHAT IFS" like will the driveshafts hook up fine to the chevy drivetrain and such. N E body have any thoughts on this?

I highly doubt drivetrain shit is just going to go together; but I could be wrong.

if the drive shaft doesnt match go to standard parts on militry highway and providence .. they will make custom driveshaft and u joints ... plates waht ever u need for driveshaft and drivetrains.

just got a u joint custom made casuse i took a dually drivesahft and put it on a extened cab silverado and the ujoints where diff . so they made a u joint for me for 27 dollars . alot cheaper than buying a new oem driveshaft.
