I have had a couple re-mans in my early days and they were junk. 

For the same amount of money you can easily put together your own engine, hiring out any necessary machine work and putting everything together with the parts of your choice.  These things are super easy to put together.  Honestly its harder to hook all the extra junk to the outside of the engine than it is to put together a long block with freshly machined parts.
