Pretty much. The steel pieces and fasteners get a soak in the full strength cleaner. Typically for a day. The aluminum pieces, like the front and rear covers, get a spray and scrub. I don't like to soak those due to the corrosion. That oil pan was so bad, I was willing to accept a little corrosion to get the sludge out.Originally Posted by BillBoost37
Harmonic balancer is back on. I "rented" the Autozone installer and it worked great.
Drilled and tapped the oil bypass thing for the K10's oil pressure sensor.
I just used some random S10 fitting to make sure I had the proper thread depth.
With that done I could get the oil pan put back together.
Pan is back on waiting for the final torque.
Probably slap the intake on it tomorrow. Hopefully the pushrod length tool gets here early in the week. I'd like to order pushrods before the weekend.
