Bronco - I agree with you. I wanted the cylinder head and crank shipped separately from the crankcase/block. Import it as spare parts. I did get the seller to quote delivery by boat - "the sea shipping cost would be 198$ for the package. the shipping time will be around 45 days to reach the port". That's a lot more manageable than the $1100 air freight!
As I dug around on Craigslist two days ago, I found a guy selling Military surplus 9HP Onan diesels for $600. He is only about an hour from me. As neat as having a big single cyl diesel would be, it sure doesn't sound practical to get one.
Thank you all for your input. The $200 boat delivery is sure tempting, but the customs clearance is more than I care to deal with.
