Thanks for the reply. I am talking longer than a few months though. basically all I have so far is the rolling chassis, and it could realistically be three years before it's finished, although Im trying to complete it before that. The 390 that I am putting in it was rebuilt by my dad, and ended up sitting on the stand for about 10 years. The engine only had about 12K on it when we pulled it, but several gaskets were leaking from just getting old while it sat there. I know it helps if the gaskets actually have
oil on them to keep them pliable, but it's hard to keep them that way for an extended period of time.
It seems many of us always plan to get something done quick, but many times it is realistically alot longer...I just dont want to subject the engine to sitting, but at the same time, I dont want all the engine parts scattered around the garage, taking up room. LOL What to do, what to do.
Thanks,
Greg
