Default Re: cleaning out pieces of oil

I opened the valve covers on a 390 Tbird engine once and couldn't find the rockers. I have opened several 283 chevy motors in my youth that were almost as bad. This is what happened when Pennsylvania crude oils were used and not changed. These oils had more paraffin content and would build sludge that dried and made messes like that.
