If you want a good stock setup the factory intake would be easy to clean..buy a cheap right angle die grinder and buy some scotch brite rotary pads that you can put on the grinder....it may cost money but you'll be able to clean up the gasket surfaces in about 5 minutes...if not find somebody that has access to a sandblaster..then paint with a $5 can of engine enamel..it will be like new.

Ya i wish I knew people like that...I would sand blast the block also...But I'm in the middle of pulling the head to day...Hope to get the last of the lower head bolts out after a quick supper then next week take them in to get them cleaned and get the valve seals replaced!
But that die grinder idea seems like a good idea....I could have used a cutter today..."damn exhaust bolts!"
todays progress, pulled all rockers, rods and lifters out...hope to have picks of the heads off tomorrow or as late as wednesday!
