Does that include Michigan delivery?

I'd take it for backup but I have no way to get it.

At $1,000 with Uship or LTL freight this is probably the best deal around even after shipping across the country.
You guys have about a week to get this before lose restraint and clear space in my garage.

Man I wish I could get this. One question, don't the variocams work different in a 2.5 motor?

The Variocam is the same on all the 5 chain 986 engines - 1997 thru 2002. The biggest differences between the 2.5L and the 2.7L are the cable throttle vs e-Gas throttle, the intake tubing (resonator flapper on the 2.7L), and the DME(ECU) and it's wiring harness.

Has there been any interest in this yet?

Can you handle shipping it from your end if needed?
-securing it on a pallet and dropping off at a freight terminal?
-or arranging to meet an independent hauler pick it up through U-Ship?

Not that I'm quite ready to buy it, but resistance is weakening.
