Looking for an Engine Rebuild in Atlanta

I think it is going to come down to rebuilding my 360 engine. Does anyone know of any good places in Atlanta? What would be a good price for a rebuild?

Thumbs up 360 rebuild

I have used a Jasper rebuilt engine which worked out . They have a good warranty . When youget the long block kit it comes with all gaskets,hoses,spark plugs,water pump,oil pump,belts ,etc. You will have to shop around but they are worth the money. I am a retired mechanic and have installed my share of engines and rebuilt them also. A friend of mine visited the Jasper factory and was really impressed as he has a auto and truck shop and really likes their products. Kenny Nunez

What's the ballpark figure on a longblock? I'm probably going to be looking at a rebuild on my 360 before too long, as well.

You could check craiglist engines pop up once in a while. You might find a cheap donor truck you could for parts and scrap what you don't need. I have seen some pretty goods deals lately but they go fast.

Just some examples, I like to look in auto parts, autos for sale and barter section when I'm looking parts etc.
