Engine storage

Kartiac Arrest

Comer 51 Engine Victim
Storing engine inside the house. I started the motor up and got it hot on the stand. Changed the oil x2. I filled it to the brim.

It it FHS lightning or pag oil. When we go back racing I will reverse the process. X2 oil change.

Do I have any risk of intenal rust doing it this way?
 
It's also important to drain the fuel from the carb float bowl. Some people run a gas and oil mix thru it, some spray it out with WD-40, others have their own voodoo that they do to it. Otherwise the gas will gum up the carb.

I usually block the intake and exhaust so no moisture can find it's way to the valves and beyond. Otherwise I think your oil changes are the ticket for storage.
