This was taken off of Humvee.net I just thought some of you might be interested.
Well, I had a good talk today with the folks at one of the top diesel shops
in Salt Lake City and they told me that someone had brought in an H2 -- with a Duramax for work.
They said, yes, they know that supposedly it is not supposed to fit nor the
transmission -- but despite what the factory, GM, and everybody else has
said, they do fit and that they've seen it.
Apparently, the owner of the H2 purchased a Duramax truck and then removed
the engine and transmission from it and dropped it into their H2. The work
was done by a regular (gas) shop in Layton Utah.
These folks are incredibly knowledgeable and if they say it, I am very
inclined to believe it. They are magicians when it comes to diesels and
can do most anything if it can be done.
So, there you have it -- the Duramax can indeed fit in the H2. Perhaps
with not a lot of extra room (both of us wondered about cooling), but it
appears as if it can be done.
