VORTEC V8

[CJ]

Lets get some insight into the engine/chassis of the H2.
Is the engine unique to the Hummer?
If not, where else would it be used?
How long has it (engine) been in existance?
How many miles can we expect to put on it (engine)?
Enough about colors, accessories and features.
Has anyone purchased the shop manual and is it worth the price?
Do the u-jounts have zerk fittings?
Has anyone smoked(from braking [img]/infopop/emoticons/icon_smile.gif[/img] ) their brakes yet?
Has anyone moved to a different type of shock?
Has anyone had a bumper impact at 10 mph or less? what was the result?
Do the skid plates work?
How low have you aired down your tires to 4 wheel?
Did your H2 come with a trailer wiring adapter to reduce to the flat connector?
So many questions... I just cant deal with not knowing all the details yet. I appreciate any insight you may have.
