I have a local EMS place needing a 2009 chassis cab LMM engine replaced. Just trying to get 2 estimates together (factory crate engine and a Reman. Engine).
Any suggestions for a reputable place?

Blackwater engines from Virginia. Friend used one for his 4th gen and was happy with it.

For what it's worth... one of our blackwater engines dropped a valve.
We've never truly been 100% happy with their work.
 
Can they rebuild the one they have? Give Josh Harris a call (903) 963-4000, he may be able to help.
 
I will also state it was like 10k miles on the engine and it destroyed itself.
Had an ISB bend a couple pushrods. We never discovered if it was the customer (very hard on equipment) or the engine builders fault (parts failure based).
 
Others may not agree but we've had really good luck with Jasper... probably looking at 7k+ for a long block
 
Brand new long blocks from GM are about $7000 and come with a warranty.

Be damned if I'd do that personally but it might be a decent route for some folks.
 
I priced them a GM Longblock. My cost is $7450 I believe. It's going in an ambulance, so I don't want any extra liabilty
