Default Crate motor

If one are looking for a ZZ4 Crate motor - would that motor be the same motor if I bought it 5 differents places??

Can someone link me up to a good shop near LA, California ??

Thanks
Claus

Yes a ZZ4 motor is a GM motor and what ever dealer you buy it from it will be the same. Can't help on a Ca. dealer.

Sallee Chevrolet is in oregon but they are EXCELLENT! They can probably ship to a local dealer cheap enough and will do the nessesary mods to fit under your hood and make sure it is right and the warranty will still cover. A+ Dealer

Are you implying that the motor has to be installed by a dealer to comly with the warranty? If I were to install it what changes as far as the warranty?
