Build the engine stand featured in Tech Tips with out the casters and strap it down to you choice of vehicles (pickup/trailer) for a secure ride. [LINK]

I see lots of engines strapped (and not strapped  )on top of an old tire. A straight six on its side (assuming any accessories are removed from to bottom side) would ride nicely that way.

I use a tire also. But i usually lean it and sometimes against a tire. But regardless, always strap it. Better with 2 straps. They will move, bounce, rub, fall, and cause a big disappointment when least expected.

You might call these guys. Action Movers [ saltlakecity.craigslist.org] I've never dealt with them, but they might be able to direct you to a shipper if they're not interested. You could also try posting an ad in the rideshare section of the Utah craigslist. John
