Hi,
Can someone recommend a shipping company for a engine on pallet from
Western Massachussets, residential, to somewhere near San Francisco (I
can drive to anywhere within an hour)?  I'm looking for a lowish cost
shipper that can pick up an engine from a guys house and then drop it
off either at my house or somewhere near.

In a separate issue, I'm dismantling my 1.9L for the first time in my
life.  I've got the  the engine on the ground with the heads off..
Here are two pictures of the stage I'm at.

I've got the pulley wheel off.  However, the flywheel and the pistons
and sleeves are still in.  I plan to split the case.  What should I do
next?  Should I take out the pistons and flywheel, or should I just
split the case.  This is kind of exciting for me, so if I need to take
out the pistons, I will probably stop buy a hardware store on the way
home and get the snap ring pliers, which it appears that I need.  Also,
do I need to buy a special tool to take the burr off the piston pin if
there is a burr, or can I use some type of standard file?

Thanks.  Wish me luck.  :-)

Regards,
Craig
