Engine Block Cleaning- oil ways etc..
Now then folks!
Finally got my block black from the engineer. Now the plan is to paint it this weekend although i was wondering how people clean the block inside?
I've doused the block in Carb cleaner and cleaned as much as i could and blew out with a compressor but there's still bits of swarf and dried oil inside the oil ways etc.
How do people clean / wash their block? Really don't want to put it back together while there's contamination floating around in the oil.
Any advice would be great!

I've found that life I needed.. It's HERE!!
Pressure washer everything! Take out the ball bearing at the rear of the block (long piece of steel rod an a hammer from the front) and all of the core plugs at the front and pressure wash (plain water) through.
