Don't get water into the carb, alternator, and the distributor, but the rest you can wash like a crazy man. I used to put a plastic butter bowl down over the carb stud and run a nut down to hold it, the others, I would use a heavy plastic bag and tape. soak with a cleaner and wash with a pressure source, when done, use an air hose to blow them dry.
