350 Crate Engines

[paulj]

Hey all,

 

I am looking for a good source for GM crate engines (complete engines). I have a 95 Yukon that is starting to drop cylinder pressure on the #8 cylinder. The truck has 122,000 miles on it.

 

I am ok right now but I need to start the research to replace the engine. My thoughts are that it will be better to replace the engine as apposed to perform a rebuild.

 

I am open to options / opinions but would like to start pricing replacement engines.

 

Thanks in advance for any feed back.

Your local Chevrolet dealer can get them. Might want to try there first.

Thanks guys!

 

I will check out the options listed. My wheels are turning. I am thinking a new ZZ502 might be fun.....

 

Thanks again,

If money is no object, why not try one of these fire breathing monsters:

Ha lol....... That would be a fun engine to drop into the truck......

 

I do not want to drop too much on the engine swap. There is another toy on the list that I want which is why I am not looking at a new truck right now.

 

Thanks for all of the info!
