    How'd you clean it? I'll be painting mine soon after I get it pulled and possibly bored.

    I wired bushed it with a drill and then wipe it down with acetone. Then brushed it on the block. Just tape off parts you do not want to get the paint on. I did not do this:banghead:. Other then that it turned out good.
