Jim,
I'm glad you did say it...it only serves to re-enforce what pre68 Dave said...not that he needs it. My block and head are packed with the same crud but the block is still in the truck. I'm hoping it can be effectively cleaned out w/o removing it. I do have a good pressure washer that I can take to the shop but not sure if that would be smart to use while the block is still in the truck. It will produce about 3000 psi though!
Thanks for the input
