RE: Make sure you don't hot tank that block... |

i very rarely tank blocks as i find that it can cause more problems than it cures. i usually wash well with solvent to get the grease off and then soap and water. i have been doing it that way for 20-25 years and have been very happy with the results. what would really make you sick are the other engines in the shop. they are all original including a 16,000 mile early 69 CJ (has a 390 GT type snorkel with a paper hose and the heat stove has never had a screw for a metal S tube) and a 39,000 68 GT. virgin engines down to the plug wires! i only have a a few FE's left, maybe 10, but i have had hundreds if not thousands since i got a 66 fairlane GTA in 76 and got the bug (before that my blood was all orange!). hawkrod |
