Re: oklahoma ??
Precision engine rebuilders in Durant will do swaps. I havent done buisness with them in a long time tho. I used them for a chevy project 8 or 9 years ago & found the quality of my "new" motor wasnt far from the junker I traded them.
Like Sam said, ask around & find a good machine shop. Even if you have to drive 100+ miles.
We had a kick azz machine shop here in McAlester, Glenns machine shop, but the old man passed & the kids auctioned everything off.
There was one in Muskogee, but I cant remember the name of it. My buddy had them build a 383 stroker motor for his 4x4. It has been a great motor. Im taking my stuff to them from now on. I'll look for it & re-post if I find it.
EDIT: I found it.
