Hello everyone!

I'm new to this forum, and have found very useful information already! I had a specific concern I tried to get an answer to, but heard different point of views for it. Maybe some of you can give me a right or different vision....

I have a 1979 Chevy with a 350 SB, that is a collector vehicle that I only use in the summer from time to time, and I store it for the winter ( I live in Canada) in a heated garage. About ever 2 months I start the engine for 10 minutes whitout driving it to have the engine work a little.

My concern is, even though I make one cranking shot of maybe 5 or 6 seconds to have the oil circulate in the engine, and then start it a second time, where the engine fires up after 3 or 4 seconds. Since the engine has not run since 2 months, is there any danger that some components of the engine, like bearings, camshaft lobes, could be dry of oil after 2 months?

We all know that oil is sticky and doesn't evaporate like water does, but I'm a bit concerned about some components not having enough residual oil on them to ensure proper lubrification until the oil pump has reached enough pressure to lubricate everything...

Am I too meticulous for nothing or is there something I could do to avoid unnecessary wear in my 350 SB? I put a lot of money in this vehicle, so I'd rather take very good care of it....

Any input would be welcome!

Steve
