It's about damn time.

I've heard they restyled it a bit as well, since fitting the Duramax required a longer hood. I wonder if they will charge more for it?

You can count on it!

I think the Diesel and the Allison will add close to 10K to the sticker.

With the diesel it will be the ultimate all around sport utility vehicle. :usa:

On the bright side, it may kill the resale of gas H2s.

Good. Maybe a used gas-powered H2 will be affordable. :)

Very interesting...

From May-July I helped a local shop with a 03 H2/Duramax conversion. They handled all the mechanical fitting and I took care of the harness/computer issues. It fit fine with very few issues. They didn't have to extend any sheetmetal

Here it is. Click on H2D link...

They were planning to mass produce the conversion. Funny thing is they took it to SEMA this year and took some GM reps for a ride. Looks like a BIG MISTAKE at this point. Oh well, at least I got paid!
