Shipping Companies
Fed-Ex Freight is decent if your willing to pay a little more...

We ship freight almost daily from our warehouse, and use several companies depending on destination.
Give me your origin and destination zip codes, weight including the pallet , and I can check on a quote. The best rates are from business to business, both with docks or forklifts. A residential address will cost $40-$70 extra, also some companies charge extra for lift gate service.
Check out U-ship.com you can find some great rates. U-ship is a reverse auction for shipping and service providers can range from a guy with a pick-up to full service shipping companies.

I am going to go with engineshipper.com . I spoke with Kevin there and he is going to do $199, with residential lift gate service and it will only take one day transit. They are based in Phoenix and the engine will be dropped off at thier shop (or he said he could meet MaxPF somewhere in Phoenix).
I am hoping this works out as it sounds way too easy.

Just be sure the company is licensed and bonded (and you get a copy of the document with the license number). The last thing you want is for some company to come pick up your engine and put it into their vehicle or sell it for you.
