Well, it's time to go to Iraq again.

Does anybody have some advice on how to store my fully built bottom end for roughly a year while I'm gone?

 

be safe out there! put it in a garbage bag and wd40 the cylinders, tie up the bag.

 

I'd wd40 the valves too, i've got a car in my shop right now that's been sitting for a few years and the motor was rebuilt back then and never run. There is rust on the back side of the valves and god knows where else.

 

Will do Andy, and thanks for the clean *** block to build

 

When I packed away a motor I WD40'd anything that normally moves and gets lubrication. I think you can go underkill on protection, but it's hard to go overkill. Good luck over there dude, I'm not a fan of the war but I can really respect anyone who's job description involves the chance of getting your *** shot at on a daily basis.

 

I will store it free of charge in my hatch

Stay safe over there

 

Someone I work with told me to use what boat engines use.
Its called fogging oil, he says it works very well and its around 5$ a can.

 

Im currently deployed again. I Wd40 everything i can think of and baged it and put in crate. NOw only 4 more months till i open it up and play agian. hahah. See you out here hahaha.

 

word wd40 and iba are your friends! shoot first and when the ******* cid starts asking you why say. "**** man, i don't speak arabic, i thought they were asking for ammo" be safe, and look out for your buddy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

be safe.
