Posting an engine

Hi Guys,

I got a replacement crossflow in the end, rather than going bike engine route, mainly because it will let me progress with my build with the least amount of modifications.

I need to collect it and i'm thinking about trying to arrange a courier. People have used postvan and interlink before, whats the best way to package it before sending?

OTOH, don't suppose anybody makes a regular trip between bedford and scotland and has space for some oily bits of iron?

Cheers


David

Strap it to a pallet. Plenty of couriers will ship palletised items. Watch the weight limit though. Not everyone likes parcels over 80kg.

Once its SVA'd I'll begin the export/import process.
