Default Northstar Engine pulled head bolts/blown head gasket/overheating

I am looking for anyone who has had dealings with a Northstar Engine rebuilder located in Wisconsin. Please post you story good or bad with the year and make of your Cadillac.

Go to ebay,,there are several low milage used engines there,,some are near you. REPLACE anti freeze every year!! It will cause damage as it gets older!! You have a deeper problem if you have done that damage to engine.
