Hummer H2 For those who like a little more gleam to their Hummer, the H2 offers a similar rugged look as the H1, but as a lower cost, and with more added features, making it almost a massive luxury SUV.

Pretty damn wild! I would LOVE to have a diesel in my rig but I don't know how much this is in the books for most of us. I know my way around a shop but I would be a little scared to take on such a project. Especially not knowing much about diesels, never owned one myself. Awesome write up so far and pics!

Awesome job! Do you know Eric at Duraburb by chance? I just bought an 08 H2 and the piston slap is bad when cold. I'm debating a diesel swap or a new 6.2 with a super charger. I have an 06 GMC lifted 2500LBZ and a 2016 3500LML. What would you charge to take my rig and diesel swap it total out the door with you supplying everything?

I believe I talked to Eric over the phone a few times not sure. I think they only do suburbans now. Here is my website. h2conversions.com lot more info.
Id rather have a LBZ. Think about it and see if you can get a LBZ to work in this platform. I like the 08. I have known Eric for a long time. He has a special project that takes up hos time now.
