My 7.3 IDI just blew, need to find a rebuilt engine.

[divemaster5734]

I have a '89 Centurion.
It has over 270k miles, I am the 4th owner.
Had a under hood flame out, and I'm sure a head gasket blew.
The injector pump was in need of attention the day I got it.
I don't have the time, place, or experience with diesels to do a rebuild myself.
I've heard a lot about buying a reconditioned and just dropping it in.
Considering all the other work I need to do to get running again this seems like best option.
The only problem with that is I don't know where to start looking or who does a good job.
Anyone here know of a place? I need to find one that has the injectors and pump included.
I'm just north of Seattle.
my email is [email protected].
Thank you in advance.

PM russ/"typ4". you won't find a better guy for advice/work up in that neck of the woods. "punkmechanic" would be a highly recommended mechanic to do the R&R work but he is down in Portland. Still, it very well may be worth t he tow down to his place.
