Had gasket removal
What is the best way to remove a stock head gasket without scratching the head/block. The ice scraper is a pain and doesn't get all the graphite off.
What about using paint remover. The kind that is a jell and melts everything?

dont knock em till you've tried them... they work awsome.. every engine builder i know uses them now... they clean well enough to see the machined surface again, but they wont scuff the surface at all... unlike the scotch pad ones...
the fact that you can clean both block and head surfaces in under 3mins is just a nice plus.. they really do work well.

i use the yellow and the green ones.... i think the yellow ones are "softer" and ment for alum, so if you're only getting one kind, and its just for the LS1, id get thoes.
you can get them anywhere you get 3M stuffs... i get mine thru my uncle since he has a shop... i havent used them in a couple years, but only because i havent had to build a motor in a couple years.. lol.
