John finished the conversion. Some others have had trouble getting their conversions finished. I have heard he can do some really good work. You could surprise some people on the street in that thing. Probably pick up some money from the well chosen street races. :)

Would be a blast to take for a spin! Not sure how long the gears would last when the supercharger starts talking to ya!

Looks like stock front end. Doubt it will last very long with that much power under the hood.

I've seen that truck before. I wonder how well it would do offroad without the traction control and abs, given that the front end won't blow up first

What? A finished John Goodwin conversion?

Holy ****.

One of my friends got burned with that shop with his duramax H1 conversion. I'm surprised H-line is still in business...

Interesting, very interesting. How would the front end blow up?

Not literally blow up into flames but just that the front end and even rear end would be snapping axle shafts due to the extra power. I know your on the JK forum so you have probably seen this before...Theres a reason that the guys running hemi's in a JK have Dana 60s or bigger. Its just that the axles cant handle the abuse from all that added power.

That what I was thinking. John hasn't had much good press lately.

Due to the extreme power no air bags installed!

Quite possibly making it illegal to sell. At the very least it will be a huge liability issue for the seller, if not the shop. They probably don't have airbags installed because they accidentally set them off during the modification process (because they're morons) and then crapped when they saw how much new ones cost.

Of course ABS and traction control have been disabled.

Again, because they're idiots and couldn't figure out how to keep it functional with the new powertrain :roll:

GM has a problem blowing head gaskets on the 6.0 liter motor.

Since when? They did have intake and water pump gasket issues, which are fixed with revised gaskets (or aftermarket gaskets), but I've never heard of head gasket issues unless the engine was overheated. Pretty much the same with most engines.

This is an example of a shop that has no business doing these conversions. :no:
