Second Choice, Buy a crate motor through GM (This is what I did) and allow the dealer to replace the motor completely which comes with a 3year/100,000 mile warranty.
Third Choice, find a reputable engine build shop in your area that can do the V6 work (cheapest option) no added warranty
General Crate motor Cost without labor: $4,399.97
Even the motor repair by the dealer is upwards of $3k

Man what a waste of $1800 on the chains.
What I don't get is that there was no knock like this when I brought it in and now its a loud knock.
Can it be something simple like sparkplugs or bad fuel?
