Default Shipping an engine??
What's the best way to ship an engine. I think I have seen "engine crates" but not sure. If they exist, where do I get one?

Thanks

You Will Have To Build It Yourself. Start With A Pallet, And Frame The Sides With 2"x2" Lumber And Plywood. Put The Engine In A Cradle And Bolt It To The Pallet. Use Drywall Screws Not Nails.

Make sure there are no fluids in the engine otherwise it could get real messy

Over here if a courier sees any fluid leakage they will refuse to collect / deliver

Good luck
