2010 LS3 Camaro Engine issue

I was driving on the highway, noticed what felt like a misfire, along with a flashing check engine light, I pulled off the highway which resulted in the worst hesitation ever, i turned the car off before it died. When I tried to start it again it wouldn't even crank over. The mechanic tried rotating it ny hand and it wouldnt go either way. I know its something bad, just trying to get ahead of what parts ill need (besides the obvious)

Nobody will have any idea until it is torn down.

I figured, was just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of who makes the best rotating assemblies. I might as well beef it up if I have to rip it apart and rebuild it

If it's mostly stock, it sounds like you'll be swapping in a used engine. To confirm the engine is gone, cut open the oil filter. Probably loaded with glitter. Hell might even see it on the dipstick.
