I had a pair of Magnum heads downstairs for probably 10 years. I brought them up to take them to a swap meet (and never die) A few days in the garage and they flash rusted on the machine surfaces. Back to the basement they go!

Exactly! Parts left to temp changes and humidity get ruined. The house is a stable environment. And that’s exactly why I have brand new and slightly used parts (well cleaned up) in the house. They are in exactly the same shape when I put them in there. Cast iron gets the hammer worst and first. Then it’s unprotected machined surface like a camshaft, lifters, etc...
So... I think Rani isn’t crazy..... I think she’s got it right... and yup, if your new and don’t know her, she is a car nut. Fits in here perfectly like the last puzzle piece.
It’s non car people’s that don’t get it. They think your nutz!
