Colorado Engine Work

5 months ago my engine died in New Mexico on the way to Colorado. My friend was transporting my truck there to work on it, as it turns out he doesn't know what he is doing so I had to find other people to work on the engine. I have done various things including checking pressure, having head rebuilt, and reassembling engine. I have already spent about 700. I feel the people who have worked on it so far didn't completely know what they were doing because the engine is still not running. I'm looking for someone who would like to help and I will pay you. Truck is currently located in Fountain Colorado. Truck is P350, 215 6cyl. And can be seen at purple53.com

It would help to know what the symptoms are?

Colorado Springs is loaded with all kinds of repair shops, including ones that are familiar with old engines.

Can you recommend a shop in Colorado Springs? Most that I have found won't work on a 10,000 LB truck. I do not know what the symptoms are.
