Importing a Euro S50

[acolella76]

Which S50 are we talking about? S50B30 isn't going to be worth the trouble getting it over here.

S50B32 is pretty much the same motor as an S54B32, only harder to get... and S54 makes a little more power. S54 would be much easier to find, etc.

Why are we thinking about euro S50's again? I forgot

[Kershaw]

I don't think a s50, euro or not, is worth it.

by the time you factor in shipping, a local s54 would probably be a better choice.

contact Rui Azevedo on the S14 forum. His shop has imported many euro motors.

S54...

Customs will call and want to know what it is and that's about it. Agree that it may be cost prohibitive. I shipped two to England recently and it cost a pretty penny. I don't think a s50, euro or not, is worth it.

That would cost an arm and a leg considering you're not only across the Atlantic but you're on the West coast as well. I shipped an engine by truck in Canada before from central to the East coast and it was $500. I know that's not a great estimate, just tossing it out there.

Having lots of money

Anyone here imported a complete engine from Europe before?
If so, besides the large amounts for shipping, anything else I should take into account?


Thanks R3v.
