How is everyone storing/sealing their engines and gearboxes when they are separated. Last time I wrapped them in pallet wrap and had them on a trolley but it wasn't the best. It wasn't sealed particularly well and the plastic could easily get torn. I am thinking of getting a large plastic container for each of them but they are too large for most containers and I don't want rubbish ones which will fall apart. |

I have a gearbox in one of those big black plastic containers with a yellow lid. I stored an engine/gearbox for nearly thirty years wrapped in plastic, no head on it. I just smeared grease on the head surface and regularly oiled the Bores and turned it over .now in the car working. The tools I made as an apprentice are rust free smeared in the grease I put on in 1964. |
