GU with Cummins donk

Bloke was here where I live and he had a Dodge Ram with Cummins , I think you'll be more than happy with it, he said it has loads of power with good economy.

Don't know anyone that has fitted them in a GU but there have been a few fitted to Hummer H1's and Humvees in the US.
They too fit the entire drivetrain from fan to rear of the transfer case, because of the massive torque the engine outs out (it is more than a 6.2 or 6.5T Chev) theydo have a problem with diffs and halfshafts if the loud pedal is used indiscriminately.
They usually get a complete donor vehicle (Dodge utes usually) as you need all the electronics for engine and trans as well as the intercooler, ABS sensors, dash and instruments plus interior driver controls, (accelerator, trans selector overdive selector etc as everything is fly by wire/electronic).
Are you getting all the electronics/wiring harness/controls/instruments etc?
If you want I can find the link to an article one of them wrote re the conversion.

I have 2 x Cummins 6BT 210HP 5.9's in my boat and they are a very strong motor with near 800nm of torque each. They are slow revving engines that max out at around 2600rpm however you never take them pass 2400rpm. Big and heavy donks..!

If it's a goer and you get it done, post some info on the result and problems encountered please.

Good luck with it.

It has been tried before - they are too long.

But like your thinking.

Gday
You could always try a "4BT" 3.9 ltr, they have 160 hp and heapes of torque. The weight will be less .

There's one kicking around Kalgoorlie with this conversion. Don't know the owner myself, but I'm told it's pretty impressive.

If you want to get some info, look up Bantick Brothers in Kalgoorlie and give them a call. They are the local ORE / ARB agents and they know the vehicle well (that's where I saw it).
