Good luck getting him to install the old mani again before hittin the dyno lol.
Well I have to say that they should not have neg repped you. Though your above statement is completely ignorant. The so called truck engine was the KA24e which was actually assembled in Mexico and had different torque and hp specs with a throttlebody injection i.e. hybrid carburetor. Completely different from the KA that came in our cars, which is also different from the FWD KA that came in Altima's.
Statements like yours lead to the internet myths that are so prevalant these days.
I should add that while we are on the subject of truck motors . Toyota, Honda,Nissan all cross reference their engine platforms across the product line. To just randomly call the engine a truck motor without proper knowledge is the kind of thing Craig Leiberman would and did say. You want to be cast in the light of Craig Leiberman? its up to you.
Can we say F&F1 and Sport Compact car? Great places for accurate knowledge. Eh NOT!

oh and to not veer completely off topic that manifold while interesting would need to be flowbenched to see if it was worthwhile.
