Over the last couple of years i have been purchasing parts for my ground up 2.5lt build. The Crank, Cam Tray, Block (all new) and Head (rebuilt Stage 2, ready to bolt on) arrived 2 months ago and the new build will occur in about 2 years time.
For the moment i have applied oil on the block (bores and top) and wrapped it in a couple of plastic bags. I open this once every 2 months and re apply oil. For the Crank, Cam Tray and Head i have done the same as the Block, however i have placed these in vacuum sealed bags. These items are stored standing up to hopefully avoid any warping.
Has anyone else stored parts like this for a long time and if so what have you done to avoid any surface rust?
Thanks
Dennis
