OK, I've pretty much made the decision to replace my engine with a "remanufactured" engine. I'll get on the phone Monday to S&J and maybe Motorworks (Thanks Karen and Jerry for your comments). If anyone has any other rebuilders they have had a good experience with I'd like to hear from you.

What is different about the 403/455 engines we use in the motorhome and the same engines in the Toronado and other automotive applications? I understand the cam is different; what is the difference? Anything else? What do I need to ask for to make sure the engine is set up properly for the motorhome?
