Message	What I did was put my Powdercoated valve covers, and Cam gears in the dishwasher! They get a thorough rinsing and heat cycling in there. And no, it will not harm the dishwasher. Flush with carb/brake cleaner as well, lots of water, and compressed air. Or hot tank them to be absolutely sure. I just fired up the motor for the first time, it has about 30min of run time on it now, with timing /idle set it didn't blow up, so I must have done something right :) I put my media blasted calipers in the dishwasher too. Honestly though, I will never blast an engine/intake part again. Too risky, hot tank only from now on. "It seems like a lot of bolts have been omitted... Judging by the amount of them in the 'random fasteners' bag. I am beginning to think my Z is being held together by zap straps"
