Re: Freighting an engine.

["Dave Zug" <dzug@delanet.com>]

I once was told (hearsay, but take it for what its worth) that a trick to
freighting an engine is if you send it as "scrap" than its cheaper to send
by ALOT. I'm not sure if they are rougher on it but if you use one of those
engine packing containers like the zz4 comes in it may be safe enough. $300
from CA to MD, $75 as scrap.  Also theres some shipping rules like no fluids
and it takes a while to clean up an engine part to acceptable I also was
told.

thats all I got sorry
