suggestions on affordable way to ship a engine block

[Silent viewer]

i found a 502 bare bloock with main caps in florida for sale, problem is i live in nebraska. does anyone have any ideas or suggestions on how to get it shipped to me for a reasonable amount? i was quoted 303 from R&L carriers which seams high considering i had a 454 shipped to me 2 years ago that was a short block for 250 from the northern east coast. any suggestions would be appreciated

I was going to suggest R&L. They usually have the best price. But when you look at it this way $303 isnt bad. Youd spend more in gas and time to go pick it up yourself. But I see what you mean that is a little steep for just a block.
