Re: Gotta move my engine (and everything else!)
Ck at a parts store for an enging crate, the ones they come shipped in, and go to harbor freight an get a 4 wheel flat tire dolly, attach the crate to the dolly, or just mount 4 casters to the engine crate.

Re: Gotta move my engine (and everything else!)
No sure how far you have to move it....
WHen I moved mine....about 10 miles to a storage building.... I hoisted it into the bed of a truck and sat it on a tire from a SCCA BMW race car. It held it nicely with a few straps for the ride. Once at the storage building I reattached the hoist and reversed the operation.

 This worked nicely moving a 327 about 15 miles. Just make sure it's strapped down. I used an old truck tire. The oil pan nestled down nicely, and very stable.
