Is this a 4-speed or auto tranny?  Auto trannies are very heavy so 200 sounds about right.  When i have shipped them i had to split the diff from the auto tranny and ship in two boxes or else you need to ship freight.  If its a 4-speed it should be nowhere near 200 pounds and hence you cause fedex or any other carrier.  Use a rubbermaid or a double strength box with padding.

I also wrapped it in a Heavy weight commercial type plastic bag and used a freight forwarder I found in line and it was under $100.00 from California to Virginia a few years ago.
