Duramax Diesel Conversion

[Lean Machine]

Just want an option on either doing the Duramax diesel conversion now or wait until the H2 are redesigned and GM comes up with their new GM diesel for an H2? Can anyone that has gone through the Duramax diesel conversion have any negative issues to report (besides the cost of the conversion?)

The duramax conversion is graet, but I am still trying to get used to the extra weight, eng. trans. and new transfercase weights a lot more.

What do you mean when you say, "get use to the extra weight" Drive ablity is adversely affected?

I have a very good feeling you will be able to get a diesel (Not sure it will be the Big Duramax though) in 2009, so i would wait....just a few months until we know whats up with the 09's. If it don't happen in 09, im going to give up.
