You were in cali no?

$200 from MA to WA isnt too bad.

True.

500 miles shipped vs 3,000 miles shipped does change things.

I imagine the 4G block is a little heavier than the 4B as well.

Not sure the difference in weight yours being AL block and mine iron. Regardless, I think the biggest factor here was simply the distance since mine had to go literally across the country. Oh well

Yea, I don't remember the shipping weight. I do know my 4B cylinder head sans cams but everything else was 47lbs packed.

Bare aluminum block is much lighter. Easier to ship. I'm not sure those totes could handle the weight of an iron black.

You have allot more perseverance with cars then I do. Glad you kept it though. Of course being a clean Kalifornia car you might get more back east if you ever do decide to sell.
