crate motor for a 2001 chevy van

I bought another van for my moving business and want to put a new motor in it. I like Fords but I was looking for a smaller cube van I can park at the house and this one had everything I wanted for cheap.

I saw some crate motors are only around $2000 and was wondering where I can get a good one for a work van. Swapping the motor will be a big job and I'd rather spend a little more than take a chance on a used one from the junkyard.

It's a 2001 Chevy 3500 cutaway van with a 350 motor. I'd like to keep the original computer and EFI to make the swap as easy as possible.

Best bet is from the dealer / manufacturer i.e. chevy as i believe most of them come with a warranty nowadays.......

Goodwrench engines are decent, but it'll still be a chevy.
