DO IT

it would still be dog slow

it would still be dog slow

i dunno man... 5.3 colorado just put down 301 whp with intake and tune...

they arent that heavy for how big they are... and its a lifted truck, how quick would i need it to be... high 13s on 35's would be fun.

I would only accept if this was done with an H1

some of those have duramaxes in them (the newer alpha models...) so why put a 5.3, or try to get one with a 5.3 in it...

itd be a downgrade for sure...

you can get a newer h3 with a 5.3 in it already...

they are super beefy for what they are too...

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

I think it would be pretty slow. Peak horsepower doesnt mean a whole lot, its the power under the curve. It would be fast for what it is, but I think the money spent on a turbo setup would be better used on just lifting it and making the truck look nice.

 

[Yaj Yak]

well fine.

be that way.

im gonna lift a tb ss and put 35s under it.

now we are talking

 

[ktraver97ss]

Not bad. I have a dream on finding a salvage h2 with no motor or drivetrain, dropping a duramax/allison in there, solid front axle D60, D60 rear also, rollin 37in nitto mud grapplers, exocage, painted flat military green, big custom steel bumpers, etc etc etc.

thatd be fucking cool. like yeah, super cool. im not a fan really of the h2s, but i like the way you think and i would rock that for sure.

i saw a lifted h3 the other day, and grew a liking for them.

looks fucking good.

Thats for a pickup though, will it fit the H3?

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

6-8lbs is about the max you can boost on a stock LS motor reliably as well.

prolly not, i meant moreover that the potential is there... a s/c would most likely be better suited for a lifted truck tho, just beecause you really need more low end grunt than the top end pull a turbo would give you. unless i was trying to baja 1000 the thing or soemthing.

its basically a pipe dream, as the h3 alphas are still holding their values super well.

i ci c.

they dont like boost as much as my l67 does eh. high compression and n/a from the factory would do that i guess.

 

[OffshoreDrilling]

Yeah, thats the "problem" with them in stock form.

 

[Yaj Yak]

also... apparently the 3.7 isnt as bad as one would think, especially cuz the trucks are geared pretty steep (4.56s)

i dunno

My old roommate had a Yellow H3 up until a few months ago. He thought he was on top of the world

 

[Yaj Yak]

yeah yellow hummers make me kill butterflies.

 

[Euro]

but yeah, that idea KJ....exxxxcellent. Although that in a Colorado would be fun too
