A few years ago, I had a small block shipped from Ohio to Florida. It was less than $200, for what it's worth.

I guess you would end up paying for fuel then cause we all know $565 will only cover your bar bill for a night in Fla.

I took them out for the winter to do a few minor things before i towed the boat to pompano to get the clear redone and now i'm going to do the A/T Thunder run jan 20 so i have to install the engines and drives so i don't have to ride with Sydwayz's girl on he's boat while he sits back at the dock.
Boat should be done before the Miami show and Dustin is going to water test to see if we can do better the week of the show.Are coming to the Miami show?
