Just a question on the freight issue?
I had a quote for the freight of my engine which was around $600 to the Port of Brisbane. Which at the time I thought was fine. Quotes for freight, I have found, do not include the handling & clearance fees at this end.... I had to add another approx $300 to the cost of my freight to be able to pick it up myself from the freight company..... And that was on a short block..... Then you have to pay someone to clear it from Customs...... I got 3 quotes for around the $500 mark.... In the end Craig let me put it on his account for around $220... Just wondering how thoroughly you researched your freight quote?
