We cleaned it up a little bit, but overall wasn't that bad. Just right near the surface was gunked up bad. So we cleaned it up near the top of the ports and on the surface before laying down the new gaskets.

Won't do crap. Yeah, the car might smoke and spit out tons of junk, but take the manifolds apart and they will look just about the same as they did before cleaning them.
