Are you sure you need a rebuild? Did you do a full tune up 1st? My L31 has over 200k runs great never been rebuilt.

Is it really tired or just anemic because it is ....... a 305

Why not a junkyard LS swap? 1998 might be new enough where you can buy factory GM swap parts that bolt in (like motor mounts) - I'm no expert but a reprogrammed 0411 ecm, exhaust collectors and possibly aftermarket fuel pump might be all the non bolt in parts you need.

Hello and thank you in advance.
Truck: 1998 K1500 extended cab 5.0l 305 cid

My engine is tired and I would just have it rebuilt however the reviews of rebuilders i have found in my area are all over the place so i was just gonna go with a crate engine however I’ve ran into the same problem some say they are great and some say they are trash so im kinda lost. I do not want to change to 350 i like my 305 and it does fine for what i do. Running job site to job site. What companies are good and what companies should i stay away from. I live in Washington state if any companies are some what close that would be helpful

S and J very reasonable, located in Spokane.
