Default Re: Has anyone actually put a duramax in?

first off let me say I have more experiance in auto truck repair,mod's,and sales than most. I have been in the auto biz since 1972 spent 10 years as a factory GM tech at a Chevy dealer and now have my own used car lot for the last 20 years. I a'm a (ADEQ) emission inspector and have built more race cars and engins than you can count. In high school at the age of 16 I did a Crown conversion on my 1966 Corvair Corsa convertable with a 400 hp 355 I built my self ,it was my every day driver . I could go on and on ,but the point is while I have not done a Dmax H2 conversion I have bought and sold 3 (and made good money on them )and have driven them a good bit . I can tell you that I was not impressed with the trade off's and the price . the ballance and handeling suffers and while the power is great I would much prefer a supercharged 6.2 gas engine with a built trans. you do what you want ,and save every last receipt and log every hour you put in to it and than and only then will you know what the true cost in money and man hours it takes to do it right . FYI It won't matter the slightest to me if you do the conversion or not I was only trying to be helpfull and let you know what your in for . if ya wanta be a smart ass,come to Phoenix and do it in person .at 58 I can still out Sell,Wrench,F*ck,Fight,Party,and drive most people .
