I have a problem with  496/8.1 and am considering a remanufactured long block.  I was looking at Michigan Motorz, Jasper, or PPT.  Does anyone have any comments or have good experience with other companies?

What is your location?

It would be great if a good company was local. The Fort Lauderdale area has everything required for boats.

I'm on the Gulf coast and there doesn't seem to be anything near me in New Orleans or towards Florida.

Try a Rick Manning at Salty Dog Marine. He orginally built the boat I own (Relentless) with 383 I/O and it is a beast. He might be able to guide you
