for large blocks and stuff I use fedex. They dont give a ---- how heavy it is. I just shipped a block that weighed 109 pounds to mid america for $56. I love those folks.

Re:Shipping...

fedex is the by far the best. USPS sucks lost packages and horrible claims process if it is lost/damaged.

I think all shipping in general sucks. when I got my engine shipped to me with tranny attached the company charged me $435, and there were a bunch of bullshit fees thrown on there for fun.
