Need help with freight shipping
 

so i been looking around trying to find a worthy company to freight ship my 12A short block engine across the country to the west coast. (Seems most interested buyers are on the west coast) I went to a few random sites but they wanted an estimated $500. Is this normal? I have shipped plenty of parts before but never anything freight. Can anyone give me a hand and tell me a few companys they have used before for freight shipping that hasn't had any problems? Any info would be great. Thanks, Nick
