Is this one street legal already?

Yes. It has a TX Military Vehicle title.

It only has to be registered every 4 years.

Heck yes!!!

Nice that it comes with hard doors. The soft doors ain't worth a shit. Of course I'm sure most of the time you'll have them off anyway. I have a serious love/hate relationship with M998s. Does that one have the 6.2 or 6.5?

Before I was sent to the armory for the rest of my time in the USMC, I worked in the motor pool on okinawa. Nothing better to get out of the okinawan sun by climbing under one of these and taking a nap

That one looks good! I went through AM Generals HMMWV driving course a while back and have really been wanting one for myself ever since.

Still has split rims?

Why am I thinking this will be an LS swap deal?

Here is what I have

I will know more when I actually take possession later this week

I do know that the CTIS either was never on it or is not on it now
And I consider that a good thing

I have no clue why you would think that

More HP, better mileage and more reliable.

Are you saying replace a torque making diesel designed for a 6000 lb vehicle with a gasoline engine designed for a 3500 lb vehicle?

Not smart in my opinion

Nobody buys a military vehicle for fuel economy to start with..or I didnt.

But if you buy an $8000 6.2 liter LS crate motor and spend $5000 more on labor and things like changing over 24V to 12v plus all the little things in a swap that eat your lunch..

Well I can buy a hell of a lot of diesel for $13,000

But regardles, I don't want to molest the Humvee. I want to keep it as authentic as I can.

I'm jealous. Are they all emp protected? I would think so.

 

[Havok1]

If anything a 6.6 duramax/Allison combo would probably be fairly easy since those were put in the H1.

Humvee has no electronics for EMP to damage | NextBigFuture.com

The US military replaced its Humvees in Afghanistan and Iraq, with heavier, better armored vehicles because of the threat from roadside bombs. But that
