well for starters u might want to degrease the whole thing, then maybe use some baking sode and water and a wire brush to scrape it, not gonna have the greatest finish though, You can also chrome it out, haha bling bling

Definatly a heavy degreaser, Castrol Super Clean works real well at full strength, and I use a steam/pressure washer to get them nice and clean.. I try to have my engines as clean as possible

A lot of people seem to like simple green. I have never used it, but I might give it a try one of these days.
