I got the whole motor stripped down. I want to degreese it, should I punch out all the freeze plugs (core plugs) or can I leave them in and still expect a good cleaning result? I tried removing the oil plug at the water pump end of the motor but it was so tight that I had to drill it out completely. Seeing that I am not gong to take out the other oil plug at the tranny side of the motor.
Its a Bluebird block...
