Methinks someone is making a (not so) sly profit on postage there! Feck! :eek:

lol possibly although it does say email for exact cheaper price i didnt think that was to bad for postage and packaging on an engine suppose theirs pallet to buy as well as shrink wrap

could i fit this using standard nova mounts and shafts?

Yes

Make sure you get the chip out the ignition key, and the pickup from around the ignition barrel, with the ecu

Most couriers will come and collect yours stuff and slap it on a pallet for less than half that postage cost. Its a business seller too, so I would expect them to have a business account with a courier as well for cheaper cost...

you must have some very cheap couriers in ciderland, cos in leicestershire, where we have some very busy parcel & pallet companies, its around the ton to ship something like that

Really? Hmm, when I was looking to post my bumper, I was getting flat rate fees for palettes at around £50. Can't remember what the weight limit on those was but it was more than enough to handle an engine.
