    How do you ship a engine?

    Who has had one shipped, which company did you use and how much did it cost you? East coast to west coast.

    you put it on a pallet and strap it down. i think fedex has freight services, and i believe DHL will handle anything you throw at them. if neither one of those will handle you, call up your train station and ask them about freight services. it might be possible to get it shipped by rail.
