350 HP? That's crazy. IF they come out with that, I think I'd rather get that then the '09 Camaro. That will be a VERY hard choice, considering I can get the supplier discount on top. Decisions Decisions.

Did you notice that they're using the same size engine as in the 2006 H3? and not the 3.7L that's in the 2007...So it goes to show you what kinda power reserve is still locked up in the 3.5L we have in the 2006's

I did notice that, Dennis I always hear people bad mouthing the H3 because it has a 5 cycl engine and not an 8 but that is why I picked the H3, decent on gas but still has the power to go off road.

from what inside sources at another site are saying, the h3T will not make it into production.

I really do like the front and back roof marker lights on the H3T, very very cool.
Just looks like a piece of polished aluminium that the sqaure shaped marker lights are mounted in.
Seems like it would be very easy for someone (GM or an aftermarket company) to make a light kit like the roof lights in thoses pictures.
Those are the roof marker lights I would buy in a heartbeat, they look much cooler than the H2 style lights too.
Anyone think a light kit of that design could happen ????

It says I5? You sure it's not a 3.5 V6? I haven't read the specs yet. That is insane. 350HP from our engines? It has to be super-charged or something. If it isn't, how the heck can we tap that (power)?

I can't see how a 3.5 5 banger can put out 350 hp without a blower or turbo.

Considering who makes it ... super charger ... I'm willing to bet on it!

Looks good, but I honestly don't think there's much of a market for $30K+ 4x4 p/u with no heavy towing power and a pretty tiny bed.

don't tell that to nissan...their frontier crew cab with the v6 was over 30 grand....and has a bed smaller than my bathtub.

I actually read the entire artical..
quote:
A 350-horsepower, turbocharged version of GM's new Vortec 3500 inline five-cylinder engine powers the H3T, and it's backed by the heavy-duty Hydra-Matic 4L65-E electronically controlled four-speed transmission. The turbocharged five-cylinder produces more power than most six-cylinder engines, but is more compact. The engine also makes 350 lb.-ft. of torque, which helps the H3T tackle steep terrain with ease.

Dennis you beat me to it, I was just about to post that same part of the article. Where can I get one of those turbo chargers?
