I recall reading a while back that if the block gets sleeved and isn't going to be assembled, some WD-40 was needed to keep the new sleeves from rusting? Is this so? If I get my block sleeved now, I won't be able to put everything back together for a good 6 months... because of what I believe I read, I've been putting the sleeving off. Any comments or suggestions?

thanks,

I usually either spray down the cylinder walls with WD40 or some fresh oil and wrap it tightly with seran wrap.

 

i wiped mine down with oil and put a garbage bag over it. No rust as of yet.
