i was just figuring the head seals, becuase i would think those are supposed to stay lubed up. Isnt that ussually the reason your supposed to start a car that sits every once in a while, otherwise they would just dry out. IDK thats just what i always thought

Im thinkin take the valve cover off before starting it and oil up the cams and everything. If the seals go... then they go and they will be changed. Untill then they are not mandatory. What about the lifters? Will they be ok after being left that long?

Um...depending on how long you get the trailer for I think when we towed my old Trans Am, it was like $35 a day or something from U-Haul, might just call around.

Will the starter be a little sticky after sitting for that long?
