    Hello everyone, I need to ship an engine across country and I was woundering who you guys have used in the past? Some one who's reliable and is not going to charge me an arm and a leg. Thanks Ron

    Heavy Shipping

    " Forward Air " oddly enough , is a Trucking Company that handles big heavy stuff cheaply .

    You'll have to crate it up or palletize it .

    Is there $ in good used L6 engines now ? they were worthless last thing I knew , sad thing as I run across good ones all the time but leave them for scrap .

    The engine is a small block Chevy I'm shipping it from Denver, CO to Detroit, MI. It's a fairly stout engine that I picked up from a retired racer fairly cheap.

    Estes Freight

    I shipped a tranny from Tennessee to Houston for $175 with these folks. It was on time. Don't know if that's good or not.:confused:
