Well, I had an iron head sporty motor shipped from FL to OK before gas went up and it was about $300. Try Yellow or AAA Cooper, I mean, its freight...looking for an LTL carrier. |

individuals are screwed on freight shipments. i have had some motors shipped to me and individual rates were 40% higher than shipping through our business account. fedex freight, but our business does quite a bit of shipping. good luck, tim |

Forward Air should be about $100 at $50/100# maximum rate, that is terminal to terminal in your own crate, not using thier crate. Im in San Diego, where are you shipping to? |
