Unfortunately, Vancouver was the port of entry. I only asked that it ended
up in Portland OR. I will post my final outcome, for educational wisdom
gained.

Thomas,
I hate to tell you this story but I ordered from Rupert in Feb.
'06. Sent him my CC# He notified me when the ship left port. The next
information I had was about 60 days later A trucking company 40 miles
away (Michigan) called and said I could pick up my engine. I paid
approx. $130 shipping fee and $56 storage fee loaded the engine and
went home.
It is hard to believe things have changed so much in 3 months???
