I got two GM crate small blocks from Michigan Motorz a couple years ago. Fast delivery too. So far, so good.

Just curious what labor prices you got for the pull and replace.

Birdman, not sure who you are addressing that question to but I replaced my engines myself. There were no labor costs other than mine.
