Been following your builds. I couldn't get your website so I figured I'd ask here. I got an 08 h2 I'm looking to have a duramax swap. I'd like the new lp5 but I'd settle for a built lbz. Any advice. Can't wait to see the h3 too.

How much would a swap cost me if I supplied the donor truck? I have an old wrecked 07 3500. I believe it's an lbz. It was my landscaping truck with only 175k miles. It has front end damage but the engine still runs

IMO, that's low$$$.A discount to HF members?

Is there a way I can contact or message you direct, this forum won't let me send messages at the moment

Train horns? Where did you find space for that setup? I thought this was a "budget build", and I don't think the Duramax needs train horns.
