Default Deposit made, now we wait.

Just dropped a $10K deposit for some needed upgrades to the H2. That was a nervous ride from the bank to the shop!
Final bill is going to be around $24K.

I bought the truck 2 months ago with 103K miles.
Engine blew last week...

Out with the old I guess....

New LS3, tuned to 500HP, close to 500 ft lbs torque (new new, not rebuilt) Good bye 6.0, hello 6.2
3 year/300,000 mile warranty
Stainless long tube headers
New 4L70E transmission to handle the extra HP
Ron Davis radiator
Tru Cool 40K transmision cooler
Bigger air horns
Onboard air compressor to air tires up after off roading.
and finally... Getting the engine and trans painted PINK. After all, it is my wife's truck...

I always wanted a hot-rod, I just never knew it would be my wife's...

Any leads on a great H2 with as blown motor? Now I want to have one built for myself. Just not sure how I pay for the 2nd.

Man sounds like it will be the way you want it when done,

If you don't mind me asking what headers are you going with?
I'm pulling the engine out of mine for some upgrades and been looking for a set of ceramic coated headers.
What are the engine specs?

That sounds like a great list of parts. I can tell that you live by the You Only Live Once idea. I envy you.

I looked into a Ron Davis and haven’t pulled the trigger yet due to the $$. I’d be interested to get your feedback if the shop is doing just the radiator or the dual fans & shroud kit that Ron offers also?
