Default Call the Experimental Aircraft Association...

..in Oshkosh, Wisconsin, and ask them! They have several engines that have been 'pickeled' for long term storage that are in hangars, and not in plastic bags, cosmoline coated and so on. They're on the nose, or wings, of aircraft on display in the Legends of Flight hangar. Someone connected with EAA should be able to give you specific instructions regarding long term storage of aircraft engines.

My EAA number is 447601, feel free to tell them I said to call them. Their number is 920-426-4800, and their website is http://www.eaa.org

Check 'em out....they have first hand knowledge and are more than willing to help.

Wow...Cessna 195, what a beautiful airplane. There's one at Colonial Glider Port just down the road from my office....polished aluminum with cream, yellow, and black trim. Stunningly beautiful! I want to see your Dad's, Keith....!
