What would the advantage be of putting a 4bt in there?

There is no way the 6cta8.3 would fit right?

on another note... I got a chance to work on a QSM11 a couple weeks ago...

Changine the engibe to a cummins seems kind of extreme but the dmax seems like the most logical choice....I was thinking of doing this conversion a long time ago but I do not think it is worth 40,000 to do on a hummer h2
Aren't they going to offer this in a few years if I heard correctly?

Main reason for 4bt would be reliability.. Also making the truck lighter and definately easier to work on(more room in the engine bay) also with some tuning it can out perform the 6.5l thats currently in our trucks and definitely get a bit better mpg...

As for the 6cta8.3 im sure it would fit width and length wise... but the problem with the cummins is they are very high and the H1 is not... So might need a 6" body lift to fit it in but im sure if you were determined enough anything is possible....

I'd like to see a picture of the 4bt in a H1.... that's just not something I can imagine right now... but I see your point about the advantages... of course you can build bitching diesels.

the b series is a wise choice though... 30 years tells me that they are doing something right.

Muddy, with your mechanical talents you are a natural for a diesel powered H1. When are you coming over to the dark side?
