    Duramax engine swap

    Not only will you get to do an amazing engine/drive train swap, you will get to auction off a lot of stuff to re-coupe a lot of your investment. I think you got an awesome deal. As far as being "run hard" , and the fact that she is a roll-over, with all these upgrades she might have been run...

    Duramax engine swap

    Next time you consider running out during a lightning and hail storm, go to your golf bag and grab your 1 iron and hold your 1 iron over your head. I hear tell that not even God can hit a 1 iron.

    Duramax engine swap

    By the time you see the high temps it might be all over. That's the point. It's a shame you just don't wanna get it.

    Duramax engine swap

    Bad choice to leave stock rad, as I'm told Duramax needs larger rad or it will overheat and get damaged. By then, "you can't swap it out later". Killing a 5-8K engine to save a few bucks on a rad seems penny wise and pound foolish. Upgrade to 12k axles? Why? You off-roading or pulling...
