Hi..new with some questions...

[drbalazo]

Hi, my name is Daniel and just registered here. I am hoping to become a H1 owner any day now. Here is the scoop:

My friend is selling me his 1995 H1 gasser but the engine is passing water through it, so I would need to put a new/rebuilt engine in it. I really dont like gassers anyway and was thinking of putting in a diesel. I am new to these H1s and slowly learning as I read more and more about them. Is it possible to put in a DURAMAX 6.6 diesel engine in this h1? If so, what other modifications will I need? Tranny? Harnesses? Please help me, I really dont think I can pass up this deal.

Just in case you are wondering, he is selling it to me for $15k because he has way too much money and really dont care for this truck anymore since he has 2 other H1 trucks. So $15K is pretty good even though it needs fixing, no? Thanx for your help guys.
