Default Blown engine looking for GVRD shop recommendations

Long story short my block is fubar'd thanks to a large amount of water and a meet and greet that didn't work out too well.

Any local shops here who specialize/know what they are doing with SRT4's? Most places out here just look at you funny if the label on the back isn't Honda/Accura. I'm assuming new engines are no longer available so looking at a rebuild depending on how bad the damage is and might as well do go for a build up now. Any advice on shops and Canadian parts sources? Talk about a shitty way to start the week. On the plus side I suppose I can move my build up plans forward a bit sooner than anticipated. Any pointers would be more than appreciated.

Same thing happened to a friend of ours with his Civic. He drove into a small lake in the middle of the road and hydrolocked.

There is actually a video on youtube somewhere of it and they crank it over and the engine looks like a fancy fountain lol

Thanks for the suggestions guys, have a few different options to consider now. Hopefully I can be back on the road before long, any other car feels like I'm riding a scooter in comparison....
