Re: shipping a 350 block?
It can be strapped to a pallet and shipped by truck freight.. Call one local to you...

I just checked with my Contact at Fastenal.
Fastenal still Doesn't ship from the West coast to the East coast at this time.

A list of those on a separate thread/sticky/thingy would be a great resource.

Re: shipping a 350 block?
I had a LS bare block shipped from CA to MN a few years ago.
It was packed in a plastic tub kind of like you use to store your winter clothes. Solid foam on the bottom, sides and top. Lots of duct tape. Went UPS. Zero issues. |

Re: shipping a 350 block?
Looks like a bare 350 block is 150 lbs so it could go UPS.

Fed X Freight. Put in on a pallet. Needs to be able for pickup with a pallet jack FedEx truck has. It will be a lift gate truck. Often curb PU and curb drop off service. Furniture dolly on either end makes moving it from curb to garage easy. Engine hoist to stand from there.
