Engine transport

Any chance someone is leaving Florida or Georgia heading to Texas, Oklahoma, or Arkansas in the next week or two that has room to haul a small block Chevy? Trying to get an engine to Jim Lewis shop in Vian, Ok. Also any suggestions for a transport that you would trust. Thanks, Mike McMahan 2543 H/SA

Fastenal is the cheapest I found.

Contact FreightPros, 1/2 the price of going directly to an LTL carrier. They set me up with R&L. Perfect, no problems, you still have to crate it.

Mike, Mark Kirby - a racer on this forum- can fix you up. Lynn Traffic Services. He has successfully shipped a number blocks/engines for me.

It is easier to get stuff to Tulsa than Vian.

I am in Tulsa if you need any help getting it from Tulsa to Vian I would be glad to try and help.
