hi,i dumped all the oil,wrapped it in a blanket and taped up the tailshaft so no drips could make the paper soggy,then wrapped it all up with brown paper except the gearlever and taped it all up with parcel tape.i bubble wrapped the end of the lever and left a hand hole at the bellhousing end.put an address label on it and it was collected like that.i was going to put it on a pallet but that would have almsot doubled the weight.i got a v6 engine and gearbox,exhaust,shafts collected and delivered to me from yorkshire for £110 last week!
