Re: Advice on Shipping a Shortblock

I sold my built longblock to a guy in Hawaii about a year and a half ago. I drained the oil out of it, wrapped it in a few construction garbage bags, placed it on the palet, secured it with large pallet zip ties, used pallet wrap around it several times to ensure it was secure and used more pallet zip ties to be sure.

The buyer had the shipping arrangements made so I didn't need to do that part. I know a viper guy whose business is shipping items that are on pallets. I could get you his name if needed.

Motorcycle cop pulls up next to me on UNI and says "Want to race?"
Me- "I don't think you would stand a chance."
Cop says "probably not" and drives off.
