2004 GMC Envoy XL 4WD 4.2L MFI DOHC Inline-6
Budget restrictions being what they are, I'm looking at purchasing a used engine from a Salvage Dealer that I am familiar with, he has 4 of them that have come out of same year model, all wrecked in rear or side collisions, no damage in front or engine compartment area. All 4 start and run and I've settled on what seems the best. Any pick at $400, and that ain't bad. I've got a warped head on mine and there just ain't no way around the problem, so what I'm looking for are recommendations for a shop that will do it right, not free, not dirt cheap, not rich man's price either hopefully LOL, but the quality of workmanship is so damn important because this is a one shot deal, been savng this $$ for a long time and can't take a bad hit here. I'm not real sure the dollar is gonna be worth much down the road, things are sketchy so....
I'm looking for a shop in the Oklahoma City general vicinity. I have a trailer and will take it farther for the right shop, but that's where it's currently located. Any and all advice on this is welcome, even if it's off topic somewhat. If you think it's worth saying, then it's worth hearing. Got a long history with this great truck and it's worth saving. Thank you in advance for taking the time. Really appreciate it guys....
