Need to ship an aluminum 225 short block (block, crank, cam, timing chain and sprockets, rods, pistons, bearings, bearing caps) and can't access Doug's paper article on the weights of various 6 components (from an old Slant-6 News magazine). Anyone (Doug?) know what this weighs? For that matter, anyone got any bright ideas on how to ship this? DS redbear@vrx.net |

Cam is about 15 lbs. T-chn around 3-5 lbs. Hope this helps, Lou madsenl@caltech.edu |

Lou's 200 lbs. would be "safe" for a shipping weight. DD |
