its the same process. but the only thing is that ur gunna have to put the engine onto the pallet n strap it up, then prob wrap it. then book it etc.

price will depend on service, weight n the locations. how much does the engine weight in ? lol

i sent a 200kg 1mx1mx1m pallet to adelaide for 176.25.

(note, if you dont have equipment to lift the item onto the truck, or offload it, then it will cost you another 50dollars~25 to pick up and 25 to offload)

its the cheapest place i have found by far !

see www.airroaddirect.com (http://www.airroaddirect.com).. best thing is they do an online quote !

put your motor onto a pallet. use a 100m roll of cling wrap to wrap it.

goodluck !
