Default Need recs for shipping an engine
I have an engine that was just built up in NY. Need to have it shipped from there to NC. Any recommendations on transport companies? So far was given a price of $1,165.00. Seems rather high for a crated engine. Engine is a stroked 454 complete from intake to EMI exhaust manifolds. No risers. Set to drop into bilge. Any feedback is greatly appreciated.
