Drty-
Other than the agreed upon coolness of having that particular engine, any one of the LS1,LS-7 crates would give the over 400BHP hi-po numbers while significantly easing intallation. I have a kegger of Shiner on the fact that after the 6-speed install is completed and wired right, mileage will still be pitifull at best. Maybe an increase of 10%, or 1.2 MPG. I think the adjustable displacement to be a better route.

Oh, I know it's not going to be a blockbuster increase in MPG, but 2-3 would toot my horn. The 6 speed transmission would also be nice.
Hell, I'm just daydreaming since Hummer won't get off their asses and leak any info on any upcoming potential engine options, the bastiches.  |

But what caught my attention, and got me to thinking, was the new engine - 6.2L 403hp V8, 13/19mpg.
It shouldn't be too much drama to put that drive train in a new '06 H2, should it? </div></BLOCKQUOTE>
dman i just Tea bagged myself.... I kinda like the sound of that 403

What is this obsession with ultra high HP in an offroad rig? High horsepower gas engines will get you broke, plain and simple. Ask KenP. 
Just hold your penii and wait for the Dmax, its coming, it has too.

Agreed-Plus the fun in modding a rig is cause enough to get creative.
As far as the breakage comment, I agree for a warrantied unit, but for the uncovered, a full on build would be the hot setup. (Hint hint)
btw, how long is an 05's warranty period?
