I used to bring parts from USA and the shipping cost was Usd 17/kg 2 years ago.
I wonder how heavy the EG33 is.
An EG33 stripped down to just a longblock-no accessories, intake manifold, etc is only around 250 lbs I think. I'm just estimating this on the fact I can lift and move it around about just as easily as an auto transmission which weighs that much. in full trim, it's around 400-450 lbs I believe.

I'll send you a PM later. We might be able to work something out.
