20r Long Block Purchase?!?

I am trying to find the best place to buy a 20r long block, I checked out DOA performance racing which seems legit but I'm looking for feedback from others. Thanks.

What's your budget?

You want only a 20R. No 22R, right?

My budget for a new 20r long block...somewhere around 1500-2000. I already have a 20r in my 80 and could rebuild it if worse comes to worse. I'm in the military and will be stationed in Fort Worth, Texas so finding a good reliable machine shop to rebuild will be a tough challenge, since I'm not familar with the area. If I lived near Portland it would be an easy decision, I'd just take my motor over to Ted at engblr and have him rebuild it from top to bottom, but I'm not that lucky!
