Advice welcome!

id try get a wee van tbh mate, id imagine an astra van will get over 50 mpg that pretty much halfs the fuel cost, but can in worst case scenario i would hopefully be able to do it, but i say bear in mind its a big 4x4 2.5 turbo ranger thats 3 ton its not too economical on the juice lol

Has no-one got a small trailer they can lend? I've moved engines using the fold down crane in the back of the trailer and lifted the engine in and drop the crane in the back.
The pallet option is better but it'll need to be supplied ready to go on a pallet. Which means it'll need to be banded down, wrapped and have hiab or forklift means to load into the truck. Without that it will no be viable due to HSE regs.
If this was nearer to me I would sort this myself.
I'm off to the workshop to ask some questions regarding who we use and what they might suggest, some are a bit flexible.

Right, I've had a word and we could get someone in to collect the engine and gearbox. They'll palletise and wrap it, collect it from and deliver to, he reckons around ?70. It'll be kept cheaper if it can be slotted in a run somewhere.
I need postcodes 'from' and 'to' in order to get a quote and clarify what's required. The company we use is Andy Crane, they shift alot of equipment around the UK for us, far exceeding the dimensions and weights of the KV6!
Reckon this will be around the 200kg mark if complete engine and gearbox, wet.
