Just picked up the H3 yesterday.
After a 13 day run without the H3, everything was finally back together and working. Everything seems to be running A-OK, and the service manager showed me everything that was done.
He told me that he had done about 8 H3's at the dealership, and the mechanics have the head replacement down. Much of the delay was due either waiting on parts, or something else breaking.
Here's all that was done:
Head, Cylinder - Replace (This included gaskets, bolts, coolant, oil, and filter)
Sender and / or pump assembly, fuel (Tank Unit) replace.
Then-- the tech said the car would not start after he had it all back together.. so:
Powertrain Control Module Replacement (this was the computer they mentioned)
I now need to touch base with Hummer on my case file, but it sounded like they will be increasing the warranty on the engine.. I'll post more when I get the final info!

Hopefully you have better luck with your head replacement than I've had with mine. I've had the head replaced 3 times on my H3. The 3rd time they replaced the head- it wouldn't start. My error code came up as the timing.

Re: Here we go -- Head Replacement in progress.
Mine is currently in the shop having the replacement done.
The light came on with a little over 7,000 miles on it.
I have my extended warranty letter in hand.
My second H3 and I would buy another one.

Re: Here we go -- Head Replacement in progress.
As everyone recommended, calling GM got me the extended warranty. So I'm covered until 2012 and up to 121k miles.
So far, everything is running a-ok. The dealer did a great job with all of the work, and gave me the car the same way I left it.
Thanks to everyone for their feedback!

Re: Here we go -- Head Replacement in progress.
Good outcome. I'm still wondering if I can get the extended warranty in writing before I have a head problem....
