how much crap did you have to take out of the engine to get it that clean. just curious....maybe u didnt take anything out.
I did in fact remove a few things so that I could really get underneath some things, but mostl;y easy stuff to remove. Took maybe an extra 20-30 minute off and on.

Well, I gotta post some before and after pics of mine I had that undercoating crap all over my engine bay too, so while I had the engine out I cleaned it all up, I actually used straight gas I had a friend of mine help me out and we got it cleaned up pretty good!

Before:


After:


That engine pic is from before the new 350 was actually running, and yes I know I need to get new coolant and windshield washer bottles lol I've also gotten some wire looms on there now for the plug wires and I've got Edlebrock aluminum valve covers now too...gotta get some new pics sometime!

Both actaully. I work at a local GM dealership, and do some work at home also. Where ya from?? As for just the engine... depending how bad it is, and what is required it may cost as little as $50 to $200
