    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

I picked up my 1100 engine by myself and I'm guessing it weighed 140lbs?
Less than a full keg, more than my wife.

My real question is how much would it be to ship one 3,000 miles

me thinks op bought an 1150 engine????
i always thought around 200lbs on an 1100/1150 with out all the extra's.
 
My wife is 125, and I thought a keg was 160lbs.

I did dead lift this my 1100 motor a couple times in 2005 when I built it, but I don't remember it being that heavy. I might have been a little stronger in my 30's

250 pounds! dang. Is that bare motor or in a crate and on a pallet?

I figured you builder guys would know because I'm sure you ship them all the time.

Yeah it's right around 250 dry weight. Had 1150 motor shipped from texas.

I've shrugged around a few 1100/1150 engines. Walked an 83 1100 engine out of a guys basement up a flight of ~10 stairs. (seller had a bad back and couldnt help!). Not fun.

And yes a half barrel ie your standard US 15.5 gal keg is right around 160#.

Lugged around a few of those back too back in the college days... Now I'm just glad I'm a chef and not a bartender :p

The last 1150/1229 motor I built & shipped to Maryland was 298 crated, ready to ship. Cost 320 through Yellow Freight from Orange, Ca. to Maryland. Ray.
