<VV> Spare 140 hp engine wanted in the Central California area

I would like to get a backup engine for my 140 hp Corsa. Most of the
engines I found are located some distance from my home in coastal
California. Most of the sellers had indicated "pickup only", but would
probably be willing to strap it to a pallet. Does anyone have any
suggestions as to the best way (least expensive) to get a motor from,
say, Ohio to California? Also, any idea as to what a reasonable cost
would be? Many thanks, in advance.

Welcome to VV!   As you see... having a subject that is concise, will help get responses..  from people  that can help.
Are you a member of the local CORSA Chapter [  http://corvair.org].. there are several in the Central Cal. area...   http://www.centralcoastcorsa.org/


  Then you have California Corvairs in Chino....  Big Vendor / shop....  new / rebuilt /used..  parts..


Shipping takes more than strapping to a pallet...  it must be boxed... and I spent $320  to ship a 140  from  Coos Bay to Las Vegas.


That engine was a GOOD  used / rebuilt once  Complete Turnkey  unit   Went for $1460  on ebay
