I'm looking at a GMC Motorhome to purchase in the Eugene, Oregon area that needs an engine rebuild.

If we buy it, I expect to transport it to a service shop that would remove and reinstall the engine and then have a rebuilder go over the engine and rebuild it. I spoke with Applied GMC and they said that they no longer provide rebuilt engines, but will install one that I have had rebuilt; they then put the engine on a test stand and run it to make sure that it survives its infancy. They can recommend a local (to San Jose) rebuilder whose engines have performed well.

That sounds like the right process, but I'm looking for a hauler, service shop (that has an engine stand), and rebuilder near Eugene. (I realize that Portland may be the closest place I could expect to find them, and since we live near Seattle that may be an option.

Any suggestions?
