This weekend I have been fitting the Duramax block in the H3 frame and fabing motor mounts up to sit as low as possible. and modifying the gas tank
and the fuel lines and filler neck to work with the dmax. Cutting the inner fenders out. Getting a standalone harness to run the drive train. The front axle
is going to be removed and in the future I will go with the dana 60s like the bullydog h3. Its a budget build with left over parts from all the H2 conversions I have done.
"Budget build", without the paint?
Make it look oem under the hood, no bling, and oem secured harnesses, then you will have 1/1.

Nice work, reminds me of the "sleeper" from the old days. Just don't go doing the crazy paint and lift like the bullydog did.
IMO, min lift and blackout would be cool. Humminator3...

A lot of torque, make sure those mounts are secure!
