Yesterday I took out my stock cam from my 1989 Mustang and im going to install the e303 cam I have new heads and all new parts but should I or should I take out the motor and wash it? It has a lot grime or whatever it is like built up oil stuff and I have a motor holder to hold iy if I take it out what would be the best way to clean it could I put some de greaser all over it and presser wash the hole thing or should I be carefull with some parts idk what to do it is very dirty if someone could answer this please it wouldn't be a big help thanks.
If you do take it out and clean it, be prepared for new oil leaks that you may never have noticed. One thing about all that grime, it may be plugging up a leak somewhere.
Crap if it was me and I had my engine out I'd just replace every gasket and seal I could. Might cost a bit but in the long run could save a lot of headache
