Hi mate. Ive done some reasearch and the best ive found is $1600. Others were over $4000!! So if u can get a courier for just over a grand thats cheap

Which state are you in and how far does the engine have to travel?

Do you have a forklift to take the engine off, or do you need a tail lift truck with a trolley??

Will be a lot cheaper if you just chuck it on a ute and pay a transport co and hourly rate.

cheers

I used VicFast couriers to get my engine from Sydney to Melbourne. Told them it was around 400kilo's (engine/gearbox), on a pallet and I needed a truck with a hydraulic tail to get it up/down. They quoted me approx. $250 with a tracking number. That includes a hard tail on pick up and arrival at destination.
