Some how or another they had broken a couple of bands during the shipping process. Luckily my buddy called me and I told him not to accept it and told them to send it back to the shipper. The company I bought it from sent me another one but I'm not sure what would have happened had we accepted it and then unwrapped it after the driver left.......

EDIT: OBTW, this motor and tranny only had 20 miles on them......
Mine came still in the crate but the wood was a little messed up on one end but nothing that would make you think the motor was damaged. After looking closer at it they move the protective paper under the plastic to cover the damage and they did a little crate repair. It basically landed on the drivers side valve cover; you can see every rocker arm in great detail. I was told to leave it as is by the investigator that came to the house and took the pictures but I really would like to see what’s under that pancaked valve cover.
