Rb26 Parts Care/storage

[dahandfull]

Hi All,

I had intended to do a motor build with, lets say, workshop "A". This workshop had my motor and the necessary engine parts that I wanted in the build and assembled everything. I had since received the car with the motor installed and wired back after a small dispute over time and money (long story).

After some time and savings, i have had the car taken to a better workshop (I.M.O.) to finish it all off and get my R running. After discussion and goals with the car, I have decided to completely ditch the old setup in favour of a complete step 2 HKS 2.8 kit. So naturally i have had the motor pulled down and stripped of most of its parts to make way for the new hks items.

Now the old motor setup was never run as the build up was never completed, and i now have in possession most of the old setup parts that i have cleaned and want to sell. Parts are;

camshafts

oil pump

pistons

rods

crank

I gave the pistons and rods a wash down is some 2-stroke fuel i had mixed up for our boat. My question is, now that i have it all cleaned, how do i store the parts so the next person can have them in pristine condition?

Any suggestions on cleaning them and storage would be greatly appreciated or any suggestions at all please

Thanks for you time

Mike.
