I'm still searching for someone or a shop to do an engine changeout on my coach as close to Oklahoma City as possible.

Mac,

I suggest do a Google search for hot rod clubs in the OK City area. They might be able to put you on to a shop that could handle it.


I suggest this because when I was looking for a machine shop in Houston that's what I did and called several of them. The people I
spoke to noted that for the most part hot rodders buy crate motors now-a-days but when they wanted an engine rebuilt they used
Scroggins Machine. They are family company that had been around in Houston forever.

You could also try antique car clubs.

Since they probably wouldn't have any experience if they were interested you could bring the engine R&R section out of the manual or
photos of GMCer's doing an R&R out the top, out the bottom, or pulling the whole front frame.

Regards,
Rob M.
