DMax in a tahoe??

[tybardy]

I seem to remember a long while back someone mentioned there is a company that will drop in a duramax, allison, and redo the rear end for a crap ton of money...

I googled it and just came up with people doing it themselves.

Anyways, does anyone know what I am talking about?

people actually spend that type of money for the perceived gas savings? How long do you have to keep the truck for it to pay off whewww.

 

[tybardy]

Gas savings? Dizzle is over $3.00 a gallon here... I would assume it would be for towing

The Guy your talking about is a member on thedieselplace.com.

I believe his company is Duramax suburbans.

He builds some bad ass suburbans but they are expensive!

If you want a 7000 # truck that can tow anything , get 23MPG, and run low 12's at the strip then this is the vehicle for you.

does he only do it to burbs? or tahoes as well

 

[AquinoSteven]

Duraburb, he has a youtube page. He did an escalade so why not tahoe?

 

[tybardy]

that a-hole didnt even fire up that escy!!! WTF?!?! how is he going to sell a customer without the customer hearing that glorious turbo?

ok so this is more than about gas, I didn't think about the tow increase or I should say I didn't know it made a difference. I would think other components play a significant role in towing besides the engine alone, novertheless, guess it's a good mod if you got the dough

 

[tybardy]

I was just curious because I was telling a friend of mine about this and he didnt believe me... I would never do this unless I had ASSLOADS of disposable income... and even still, I would probably just buy a CTS-V

that would be sick as hell..talk about spending some dough though.
