Engine Case - SBC Long Block

The Engine Case – SBC Long Block by SCRIBNER is a heavy-duty transport and storage solution purpose-built for small block Chevrolet and small block Ford long block engines. Whether you're a serious engine builder, restoration shop, or performance enthusiast shipping a freshly rebuilt powerplant or storing a high-dollar long block between projects, this protective case eliminates damage risk during transit and keeps your investment secure during off-season storage. Its generous dimensions accommodate complete long block assemblies with all accessories intact.

Constructed from durable plastic with a rigid, stackable design, the Engine Case – SBC Long Block features interior dimensions of approximately 40 x 27.5 x 17 inches, providing ample clearance for cylinder head, block, pan, intake manifold, and ancillary components without compression or binding. The case weighs 44 pounds when empty, offering robust structural integrity while remaining manageable for two-person handling. Its black finish resists staining and UV degradation, and the plastic construction protects against corrosion that can occur with traditional metal crating—critical when storing aluminum heads or polished engine dress-up components for extended periods.

Mechanics and engine builders benefit most from this case when managing multiple engine cores, sending rebuilt motors to customers or track teams, or protecting high-value small block builds during winter storage. Its compatibility with both small block Chevrolet (262–400 cubic inches) and small block Ford (221–302 cubic inches) long block configurations makes it essential shop equipment for multi-platform operations. Professional machine shops, restoration specialists, and weekend warriors rely on cases like this to prevent costly damage that can exceed the case investment tenfold.
