I know there are plenty of Nissan engines that can push 300 ponies, now just make a good argument around it.

If you decide to skip the Ford and go with a LS1 then how does 500hp and 450ftlbs of torque sound. With a carb no less. Keep the fuel injection and you will have even more. That is NA. Also, that is off of a LS1 that started at 345hp. Not the 400hp one they make now.

To get your HP level with a Ford you will likely need GT40 heads, headers, cams, maybe some springs. 300hp is not hard. You can buy a crate engine that has 345hp easy.
