Im buying a complete used crated LS1 with all accessories bolted on. Can anybody tell me approximately how much this weighs? I need to have a figure when I talk to freight companies.
Can anybody recommend a cost effective way to ship this?
Thanks

You may want to contact Scott at http://www.speedautomotive.com He ships these all of the time and knows who is the cheapest and most reliable. As a data point for you, it cost me $350 to have my LS1/T56 shipped cross country.
Hope this helps.

Call K&K express. Its an air/ground freight company and has good rates. They pick up at any location in the country and ship to anywhere. Talk to Jay, Chris, or Dion. You should be able to get it shipped pretty cheap. The phone # is 800-445-7213.
