I will probably be sending a complete engine less carb to Ribiers in la belle France by courier (unless anyone going that way soon?) but haven't ever made up an engine crate before. Any hints or tips on materials and techniques from anyone that has had to do it would be appreciated

If anyone wants the bar risers there welcome to them as i cant see myself hav...
