shipping a 6 cyl head

[fordman]

so far i have go tit botled to a piece of 3/4 plywood. and i can put sides on it or even fully enclose it before i put a box around it. do i need to go to all the hassle? or will the plywood on the bottom be enough. it has abotu 1/2 inch all the way around now with the bottom piece of plywood.

I'd encase it completely with wood or it'll end up upside down and out of the box...

It's up around 100#s right? Who's going to transport it?

83 pounds by the time i put wood all the way around it. it is going ups. it was over the quoted weight but the price didnt kill me too bad for what i got . i lost maybe 2-3 dollars total. big deal. the best part is i got rid of it to someone who could use it. instead of seeing it all rusted up in a junkyard.

Amen to that! And keeps one of our trucks on the road for a while longer!
