    My timing chain snapped at 101K miles. It had oil, really just unlucky with the timing chain I guess. Local mechanics were confused how it happened too.

    I'm looking to buy a remanufactured engine to put in, but none are available from Jasper or Tristar. Who's the next best company for re-mans? Who should I be calling for the engine?

    I'm not a certified mechanic, so I'm going to have a local shop put the engine in (about $2.5K in labor).


    Additional info: There's a ton of ATK/Spartan/Gearhead/(insert other names for this company) available for $3-4K, but I've heard bad reviews.
