I gave my Audis new turbo block to a shop that sent it out and had it dunked in something. It's so clean and shiny...

 
When I did my Mustang block I just cleaned it up with a few cans of brake clean. Painted I dark blue, which is a chevy color, and red heads, and chrome and polished stuff on top. Wicked shahp combo! It all lasted 50-60k miles when I sold it it still was holding up very good.

Also, Napa in Westbrook will hot tank cheap. They do a good job. Just got back some Tribeca heads from them recently. Spotless!

 
Id be interested to know what they use for a cleaner,and at what temperature...Would probably be a useful addition to the shop.Seems like a faily simple heated stainless tank would work,depending on the chemicals.

 
I have no idea how much I paid for each individual service.

I have all my slips, but they're in my jeep binder which is back in New Gloucester.... The price was right though. Give them a ring a ding.
