i dont have a pic but i can tell you how bad it was, i had about a 1/4" build up on all surfaces leading all the way to the heads and down in the heads, which btw the b-12 does not clean very well, no one yell at me that it does it may just be my car, but i removed alot of carbon build up like a day after a cleaning

Thanks,

HAHAHAHA THATS NOTHING! You should see what im doing in the garage right now. Ill upload pictures either tonight or tomorrow night. Currently working on LIM. If you want to know something important, use Berryman's B12 Chemtool, it dissolves everything away nicely.

Yes, it was a struggle even with the B12. Lots of scrubbing and grinding. Cleaning the heads was for only the faint of heat......

Whoops, shoulda read that. I still believe the B12 is great, but only if you can afford to get enough to dip the whole manifolds into. I spent the whole day since 3 oclock until now (10:30ish) trying to clean my manifolds and heads for rebuild tomorrow. Im still wondering how everybody cleaned the UIM without getting a big container to dip into.
