Re: [Tech] [Cylinder Head] [8V] - cleaning the combustion chamber



	I used heavy duty paint stripper and that worked OK. you know the stuff
that says 'Avoid Contact with Skin!!!!!' hehe
	The only way i've gotten em totally clean was to take it to the machine
shop and have them tank it (or whatever they do to aluminum) i dont know
about a fully assembled head though.
