[Roadsters] block & crank storage

[cour.jpeg at gmail.com]

You can get fogging spray anywhere they sell lawn tractors, snow blowers, mulchers and other small engine equipment.

For that crank and engine bits, I recommend something with more hang time than fogging spray.  We live near the Chesapeake Bay and I use something the marine stores carry called Boeshield T-9. Supposedly Boeing developed for aeronautical parts protection.

It sprays on and 'dries' to a thin wax-like surface. Remove with gasoline or any solvent when time to use.  I see it for sale on-line, check it out.

Save the paint until it's +60 degs outside again. Use the T-9 meanwhile.

Subject: [Roadsters] block & crank storage

Hi all.

I picked up my block, crank and all the other lower end bits from the 
machinist today. I now need to oil to prevent rust over winter as 
assembly most likely wont start until spring.

i read somewhere (and now can't find the info) about a fogger (?) to 
spray the cylindar bores to prevent rust. Someone out there must know 
what i am talking about....

Also, is plain motor oil ok for the rods and what not else or is there 
something better recommended for this?

One more: block painting....i need to paint the block still and it is 
now to cold so i will have to wait until spring. i already have some 
rust on the out side but have been told that modern block paint will be 
fine over minor surface rust. Is this true? What is a better (or the 
best) block paint out there that I can get for this situation?

Now to start aquiring head the bits!!

Thanks all!!

Tim
