While in parts jail I decided to spend a couple of hours listening to Zep and cleaning up an old set of heads. What’s your go to trick for getting out that caked on carbon?

Not posting this for answers but instead venting frustrations and would love to hear others stories on how you do it. For example me , 8-5 M-F working for the man, first responder to major weather events which may include weekends. I work with my dad every Saturday either on someone’s LT/LS engine or our c10 trucks 64,65,66 , Sunday is reserved for family/friends and car shows. I also created content for my small but loyal YouTube channel which takes a tremendous amount of time and effort. I have been working on my 66 c10 for 3 years now and I am at what I would say is the final push, but lately I can’t even touch the truck. I am too busy working on other peoples stuff which is a good problem to have but dam. I have everything I need to finish what I consider as a bad ass patina truck and have done everything myself and I mean everything. I will throw in a few pics but would love to hear from others on how you do it or make the time for your own project.

We drug the wife’s car out of storage to start the next swap 92 Camaro she has had since 2004/5 that she bought from her parents

So I ordered some limit straps for my c10 , as I am still building the exhaust system it’s annoying when my front coil springs falls out of the pocket. Is this just a me problem or is this a common issue with the lowered crowd ?

I got a LT4 escalade v engine in the shop . Such a strange engine for GM no DoD/AFM but still a LT4 with a kinda LT5 supercharger???
