I am not sure about the H3's but this guy Johnathan Goodwin has done some amazing thing with cars & trucks. This article is a little misleading because in one sentence he is talking about Hummer conversions
"Conservatively," Goodwin muses, scratching his chin, "it'll get 60 miles to the gallon. With 2,000 foot-pounds of torque. You'll be able to smoke the tires. And it's going to be superefficient."
and then they says
He laughs. "Think about it: a 5,000-pound vehicle that gets 60 miles to the gallon and does zero to 60 in five seconds!" [FONT=MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]
this statement here he is actually talking about an Escalade he did for another project that i also read about. The writer mixed it up here.[/FONT]

Anyway this guy does crazy stuff outside the box. he does not have to follow all the same regulations as a car manufacturer which is fine by me. I read he was [/FONT][FONT=MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]approached[/FONT][FONT=MuseoSans, Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif]
by GM to work for them at one point. He has a couple different companies and i have just heard a rumor that one of his H2's was for sale in the next town over from me... :-( I could not find it. he has a kit for an H2 for about $30K to replace everything with new Diesel, transfer case, transmission, computers, etc...and get you up to 650HP Biodeisel getting 25+ MPG The first article i ever read was a $45K conversion that got about 50 MPG if my memory serves me right. I have seen videos online of an H2 smokin all the tires!!!. I also saw a video of an H2 blowing away a Vette in the 1/4 mile.

I will tell you this... when i am ready to spend $40k on my next truck, that is about the same time
MessiaH2 is going to be ready for a complete overhaul. I will be doing one of these complete kits for sure!!! Been following this guy and his companies since he started.
