Default I need a shop recommendation in Indianapolis, IN

After a solid 208K miles, my truck is now in need of a new engine. I could probably have the current engine fixed, but why throw money into an engine that is so old, when a warrantied GM replacement will run me $2K shipped from Jegs.

Anyway, can anyone recommend a good shop to do an engine swap for a '94 Blazer Full Size (5.7 350 V8)? I'd rather avoid a dealership for obvious reasons, but will consider it if I have to.
