Speak to FedEx probably best option

Where is the engine located?

You would need to get the owner to have it properly mountd on a pallet and then get it weighed. As suggested above try FedEx, but also UPS and DHL.

Don't forget that it will need to be unloaded by a forklift, so don't ship it to your house :roll:

What bit do you want?? all of it or just some parts. That may be a cheaper option.

Just an update on the engine. It was being stored in a barn, at the owners property. I got an email from him saying, the barns had burnt down, even gave me a link to the local news station in the states. so looks like my engine is a melted lump of aluminium!! My car seems a bit doomed like that!
