What was the cause of death, Doc?

DrLeadFoot

I think just sitting for a long time. Cylinder #8 was corroded and was burning oil and fowling out the spark plug.

Fantastic! Do you know how its getting shipped yet? If its just a guy on Uship with a enclosed trailer I'd say the pallet is fine. If it ends up going a LTL (less than truckload) carrier I would consider making the pallet into a crate to reduce the risk of damage. You don't know how many times the pallet will be loaded/unloaded which increases the risk of damage from that process and careless fork lift drivers. Plus then the seller could just bubble wrap and set most parts on top of the motor/trans inside the crate.

I can help you with that!

Full disclosure, I'm pushing the limits pretty hard in the wife's eyes.

It is Uship. Should be okay?
