Hey Scott, how much do you think shipping to Tampa, Fl 33617 would be. I may need to replace my 402 and not sure which route I am going to take.

GSXMEN · 10-05-2003, 11:43 PM

I would have to get a direct quote from Yellow Freight, but I would guess it would be similar to the 402 block w/ heads that I just shipped out to the mid-west. That was only $99...about 350lbs.

That would be going to a Business address, correct? (I think it's $149 to a residential address).

GSXMEN · 10-07-2003, 12:18 AM

Well...I called Yellow Freight today, the girl quoted me some absurd price - $350 (and that was at a 40% 'discount').

My zip is 13901 - see what you can find on your end. I'll keep checking around here.

I don't know how the last guy got a quote of $99...must have some good connections.

Anybody got any suggestions?

Thanks

padreisla · 10-07-2003, 12:21 AM

Ok, will check tomorrow and see what I can find out. Also curious to see what ideas the other board members have.

Thanks...Joey

GSXMEN · 10-21-2003, 11:35 PM

Joey - Have you found any decent shipping options on your end?

padreisla · 10-22-2003, 09:16 AM

Scott, sorry for not getting back with you sooner. I checked with a couple of local shippers and also a friend of mine who hauls cars across the US and no luck. Either the shipping was going to be too much or they were not available. I had not been able to find a better deal, so a friend of mine has a new crate 454 long block for $1350 so we are putting it in this weekend.

Again sorry for not getting back with you sooner and letting you know.

Thanks....Joey

GSXMEN · 10-22-2003, 03:02 PM

No problem! I may have someone else interested...since you asked first, thought I'd check with you.

Nothing definite yet though, if anyone else is interested.

Thanks

GSXMEN · 10-31-2003, 02:24 AM

Just want to bring this back up top.

Anyone in the NY, NJ, PA area that might be interested, I'd be glad to do a little driving to help eliminate shipping costs (depending on how far away).

cwilli84 · 10-31-2003, 08:17 AM

You should to talk to Ed at Mothertruckers he sends a truck up and down the east coast pretty regularly he may be able to cut you a deal and he's in Bradenton which I think is not too far from TAmpa. Just a thought.

charlieo · 11-02-2003, 12:34 AM

Try freightquote.com

GSXMEN · 11-10-2003, 12:30 AM

Still available guys.

Thanks.

GSXMEN · 11-19-2003, 01:10 AM

Thanks for the heads up...finally tried their site - they had some decent rates available.

I tried a quote to Tamp, FL just for a figure...$92-$135 depending on carrier. CFI was cheapest, Roadway wasn't too bad either.

GSXMEN · 01-15-2004, 01:31 AM

Still have this shortblock for sale also.

For a ball park price on shipping - I recently got a quote for $100-$120 to Ohio and $220 to CA. That should give some idea on price.

Need to sell this soon. Thanks.

GSXMEN · 01-17-2004, 05:28 PM

Really need to sell this.

Thanks for looking.

Blue'66 · 01-17-2004, 06:42 PM

What is the bottom line on the engine? I am in western NY, near Batavia. I could come and get it. Are you looking for any trades? Please e-mail me at jwasmus@juno.com.

I am interested in it.

Thanks

SCOTI · 01-17-2004, 08:05 PM

This might sound like a dumb question, but some consider a short block as a rotating assembly w/o heads/induction, weather it's put together or not. Is it assembled?

GSXMEN · 01-18-2004, 04:13 PM

John - Sent you a PM.

Scoti - It is currently unassembled. Pistons are hung on the rods though.

All parts are listed in the first post. If anyone wants it minus the cam - $50 less.

Thanks

GSXMEN · 01-28-2004, 06:30 PM

Back up top. Really need to sell this soon.

Thanks.
