what do you guys use... i dont want my block to get rust on it caust im waiting on my head and its not going to be here until aug. 20-21...i put some 10w30 on the cylinderwalls and on the sleeve, what else is good.. and should i do it every week or so..

thanx

 

put some saranwrap over it?

 

I would fill the cylinders with oil. All the way to the top. You cant get rust without air...

I made the mistake with my 289 of leaving it outside without heads on it, and it f'ed it up big time. Bored it .060 over and still it wasn't right...

 

summit sells block bags just for your purpose

 

kool... thanx fellaz... oh and will suran wrap really work..

 

hehe, i was being facetious. . oil would be much better.

 

WD-40

the WD stands for water deterent. When I was a kid, I used spray my ice skate blades with WD-40 to prevent them from rusting during the off season and it worked like a charm.

 

hmm...so will it rust even if i leave the exhaust manifold off the head?

 

the only thing you should use is wheel bearing greese, that thick stuff and be sure to rub it in well.
