OK-this may seem like a dumb question.
So you get your engine and it comes all wrapped up in plastic with a gazillion warnings about not opening the plastic until you are ready to "use" the engine and changing the desicator plugs when they turn pink, etc.
Once you have hung the engine, it would seem that most builders will require greater than 6 mos to complete the project, thus exceeding the limit of the engine preservation protocol.
Sooooo.....
Is anyone doing anything to preserve the engine (other than what was done at the factory) once they have hung it? I figure on at least another year once the engine has been hung. Seems to me that most folks probably hang the engine and go about the business of finishing the project but then what do I know??!!!
Let me know what you think.
Thanks.
