4.0 Reman Engine Info

[Bart03ST]

I have a 03 spor trac with 4.0 V6 engine . I bought it brand new and have almost 200k miles on it and it has developed a death rattle that I believe is coming from the rear timing chain. Considering the engine has to be removed to service this and the mileage on it I am considering a reman engine. Can anyone advise me on what vendor they have used and their opinion/experiences ? I've looked at ATK , powertrain products inc and powertrain company.
