You mean this? I wouldn't eat off it but I'm not embarrased about it either.

Re: Lets see under the hood! (Corzvette69)
Here is something a little different :rolleyes: My engine was rebuilt back in the mid-70's. I have tried cleaning it......I wouldn't eat off it. I think engines looking like this may be a little more common then us "dirty engine" guys are led to believe. :lol:
