That's the crap I'm trying to work through now with the engine in the car. Much easier with it out.

I don't like doing extra work, but I like doing it right. When it comes time to do heads/cam or other **** like that ill be pulling the motor. That way I get to clean the 16yrs of **** that's under the hood. I'm sure if you don't give a *** about it being clean then.....
