What are the goals for your car?

If it's for daily driving only without performance, I would suggest just replacing it with another D-Series.

Yeah, hmotors does have a really good reputation, definitely an option. I would check locally too though, as it would cost an arm and a leg to get one of those motors shipped here to NC from Cali.
