Thank you for considering the purchase of your new Engine Block from MCCS. We have made the process of purchasing your new Block as straight forward as possible.
Your new Engine Block will arrive to you in a custom, padded box or Crate. We ask that old studs are removed as this will protect the padding in the box. Please wrap your soiled Block in a bin bag or similar and put back into the padded box. You can then book delivery back to us, if you need us to book the shipping we can take care of that for you and deduct the cost from your exchange refund.
