Default Best AC Blower Motor?

2002 WS6
Now that the weather has cooled off a bit, I'm going to see what's up with my blower. I think it's on its way out. Very weak airflow and a little noisy. Obviously, I'll clean it first, but I anticipate getting a new motor.

My question is: should I go Delco, or is there a preferred aftermarket brand? My first instinct is always to go OEM. I don't want to get one off the shelf and have it noisier or weaker than the original, just for the sake of saving a few bucks. OR... are they all really the same?

Thanks in advance!!

Delco is ok. Four Seasons blower motors are also very good quality, they are manufactured in North America and pass stringent quality standards. Part # 35352 comes complete with squirrel cage and molded gasket. Most others are Chinese.
