How heavy is the Engine?
I need to rent a trailer to take my old engine back to the re-builder and collect the new one he has for me.
I am going to get a U-Haul trailer but need to know what size to get.
Thanks

Unfortunately I need to drive approx 70 miles to the re-builder. So with a 59c/mile charge it will cost over $80 and then gas on top - hence the reason for wanting a small trailer.
Thanks for the help.

7-800 LBS. The smallest trailer U-Haul has should be fine.

In any event, even the small trailers from UHaul should have no trouble. Just make sure it's well-secured.
